Default How do you make a menu item appear on all pages - 10-03-2006 , 03:08 PM






My website www.artmanphoto.com is written in Dreamweaver MX 2004. I created a
new page called "Cities We Serve". Then on my home page I created a "Cities We
Serve" menu item in the About US drop down menu. Everything went OK and when I
test the page (F12) from the home page in the browser the "Cities We Serve"
menu item appears and I can click to the Cities We Serve page just fine.

When I go to any other page on the site EXCEPT the home page, the Cities We
Serve menu lisiting DOES NOT appear in the About Us menu drop down list. I
have tried to figure out why it is not appearing from the non-home page pages
but I am stumped.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? I have not loaded the new page, etc.
onto my web hosting server yet as I want to get the new menu item working on my
local machine first.

Thanks for your help!

Typically, people use Library items, Templates, or server-side includes to
achieve this kind of maintainability. Have you used any of these?

If you intend to work on this site, then you would be well advised to learn
some HTML before it's too late.

Please spend some time with DW's F1 Help, its tutorials, and get a good
book!
