I have tried numerous ways to get the pale blue of the menu to display as white.  It is white in the preview pane in the software.
The blue though similar to the background is not the same hex code.  I would appreciate a quick response as I have wasted 2 hours on this and must show it to someone in a few hours.
Thanks,
Linda

Dear Linda,

This is caused by the following code in your page, which forces all <td> elements (including those of the menu) to have this background color:

All worked fine and I can see the menu in various browsers but when I open Dreamweaver to work on files the menu is not being displayed.  What can I do to see it in dreamweaver?

Hello,

The menu will be visible in the “live preview” of Dreamweaver. Unfortunately the standard preview does not support complex JavaScript components, so it cannot show the menu.

HI Guys,
A couple of things.When you open Web scroller, it would be great if you could see the last projects you were working on, like Adobe does.When working on a slideshow it would be great if you could see the current item. Having the slide show showing is great but if you've got a large complicated project you want to see what the current slide looks like.

Dear Colin,

Thank you for your feedback.

Regarding the recent projects, you should be able to access these through the "Project" menu:

Regarding the selected item, the preview should always start with the “current” item in view:

Does this not happen in your case? Or did you maybe mean something else?

I use SiteSpinner Pro to build my webpages. I cannot get my menu to show up on my project pages in preview mode. Of course this should show me what my published page will look like.

If I "publish to disk" and compile to that page, then open the local page with "HTML Kit" everything looks fine, the menu is placed and operational. If I try to open the preview pages in the editor I get a script error popup that says "The value of the property 'awmBuildMenu' is null or undefined, not a function object."
If I try to compile to the preview page nothing happens.

What suggestions do you have to allow me to see a finished page before I move it to my website?

Thanks

Hello,

I am afraid that the preview of SiteSpinner (as well as that of most web builders) does not support complex JavaScript components.

In Dreamweaver or Expression Web there is an option of “live preview” (or “SuperPreview” or something like that in EW) which does fully support JavaScript. I do not know if SiteSpinner has a similar option, but if it does, then the menu should work there.

I've done everything I can think of to get the menu to show up online to no avail. I've had this problem before and would like to know what I'm doing wrong. The AWM preview shows the menu, but not when I access it online.

Hello,

This is because of the subfolders and the way you setup the "Compiled Folders" and uploaded the menu.js.

The URL of the page is this:

http://www.site.com/articles/something.html

(inside a subfolder)

However, the menu is here:

http://www.site.com/pphmenu.js

(in root)

And the page looks inside the subfolder for the menu:

This is why the menu is not found and cannot be displayed.

So, you either have uploaded the menu in the wrong folder OR you did not use the proper "Compiled Folders" in your Project Properties.

One practical solution would be to massively replace the menu-linking code section to src="/pphmenu.js" everywhere it is used.

Just add the "/" character and it will work everywhere (both root and subfolders).
