Table Publication & Nav Bar Wizard Troubles

M

Mike D

I used the Nav Bar Wizard to of course link to my pages...however when
published it bolds the type I assume because of the overlap inherent in the
nav bar itself...so basically the Publisher Nav Bars are uselss or is there a
way to address this issue? Also...am creating a shopping cart using the table
option in publisher...it also displays with bold text...what the heck is the
problem here....even when these items are the only ones on the page it does
this so it can't be they are overlapping anything else...Using Publisher
2000...thanks for the help...

Okay...I realize now that Tables are a no-no in Publisher Web Design...I did
figure a way around that...however, still have the issue with the Nav Bar
Element not displaying correctly...Thanks for the help...

Are you hyperlinking text, and formatting it, directly on the nav bar
buttons? Or are you letting the nav bar do it by proper use of the web page
options dialog?

You will need to post the URL of the page for review, for further comment.

Thanks David...

I just let the Nav bar do it on its own...the page is not on my server
(because it is something I am currently working on)...any other way to get it
to you?

Thanks again,
Mike

Run the Design Checker (tools menu) and see if it flags anything. Otherwise I
will try to reproduce your complaint if you post back what wizard and your
steps to recreate what you have.

Hi again David...

Here is the HTML from my page...

Hope this helps....I changed the text in the navbar to times new roman and
made it a 10 font instead of an 8...other than that no other significant
changes...it appears the font still wants to be bolded when I preview it...

Thank you so very much for your help...

Mike
