Publisher - inserting pull down menus on navigation bar

[Jim W]

I would like to place pull down menus on my navigation bar. I keep adding
pages to site and want to organize the navigation bar into a few topics with
sub-pages on the pull downs. This will allow me to keep it neat and clean
without several items on the navigation bar. Anyone know how I can do this
within publisher 2003?

Thanks
Jim

David,

Or, use a Nav Bar and at the bottom of the page, in small type, use Text
links, such as Home | Products | Services | Contact
Spiders can read the links that way.

There is no built-in support for this in Publisher. You can Google for
"javascript menus" or "DHTML menus" and other phrases to find free code to
write a javascript navbar that you can insert into your Publisher page by
using the insert html code fragment feature.

One of the problems with using Javascript is the search engine spiders have
a hard time indexing the pages, so you might want to consider building your
own textual menu with absolute links. It might not be as "neat" as you like,
but the links can be spidered.
