Default horizontal navigation - 07-08-2004 , 01:39 PM






Hey folks,

I am wondering if someone might be able to tell me how the horizontal
navigation bar may have been designed at www.harvest.org. Is it css based?
Dreamweaver layers & behaviors? Do you think it may have been done in
Fireworks or Photshop, or is it a creation of Project VII?

Thanks for the input guys, I am looking forward to replicating this type of
navigation on one of my sites.

Here to help, and be helped...
Aaron

Oh, I guess it is done with Flash...

Does anyone know of any good tutorials for creating this type of thing with
css, or would I be better off using layers and behaviors in Dreamweaver?

It's not done in Flash.

I would use CSS, 'layers', and behaviors -

or

http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/navigation/auto_hide/index.htm

and here's an example you can analyze -

Funny thing is - there's not a horizontal menu on that page! 8) It's
vertical!

it's javascript based... a good link for making menus is
http://www.opencube.com... but becarful when using a javascript menu, search
engines don't search javascript links so make sure you have text links
connecting you site... a good way to do this is by creating a sitemap.

That's not the only problem with such menus. They are noob traps of
quicksand as well.

If you are not comfortable debugging and working in js, then you'd be well
advised to stay away from all such all-javascript menus.

I provided a link to the website, and not to the specific page I was looking
at, sorry.

The horizontal page that includes icons on this page:
http://www.harvest.org/search/index.php?pm=1&x=0&y=0&keywords=teens

I am not interested in the icons, just the pop-up over the nav bar... take a
special look at the search box... very nice.

That's Flash. And it's a bad idea.
