Your site navigation is an include file. It is stored separately from your web pages. Whenever one of your pages is displayed in a web browser, the navigation file (_includes/navigation.asp) is 'included' on the left side of the page.
|
Go to the _includes folder and open navigation.asp. |
|
Open the properties inspector if it is closed — (from top horizontal menu: Window -> Properties). |
|
Type your department name over ‘Title’ at the top bullet. Highlight your department name and then do one of the following: Type the filename of the page that the link should go to (i.e. index.asp) OR Drag from the ‘bullseye’ icon to the file 'index.asp.' (See Files tab on the right). (Note: The bullseye method works for links to existing pages within your site, but only if you have set ‘links relative to site root’ in your ‘site definition’ – ‘local info.’ For outside links, type the URL in the link box.) |
|
Verify that the correct link appears in the box. |
|
To add an ‘Item,’ press enter, type over the ‘Item,’ and create a link by bullseye or typing method. (See Step Three.) To add a ‘Title’ (i.e. category), create an ‘Item,’ out-dent it (in properties inspector), type over the ‘Title,’ and create a link if desired. (Note: In the navigation list, the ‘Titles’ represent main categories. Category titles may be links or just text. The indented ‘Items’ should be links.) |
|
Save navigation.asp and 'Put' it to the web server. |
|
To view your navigation, open stub.asp or any other page within your site. |
