Inserting navigation bars
Navigation bars are used to allow the site visitor to jump between pages serving
different purposes, e.g. Home page, Gallery, Products, and Contact Us. They are
programmed to understand your site structure, making it easy to design a site
that's simple to navigate.
Technically, navigation bars facilitate movement between the various sections
and levels of a site (see p. 38), providing links to your Home page and other top-
level section pages, while pop-up menus link to child pages within each section.
In the varied navigation bar examples above, the pages in your site make up the
navigation bar options, with any "second-level" child pages, such as Product 1
and Product 2, showing as pop-up menus (shown on the front-most navigation
bar only).
You can easily install navigation bars at any level of your site, reconfigure them
to link to a particular part of the site, change the appearance of the navigation
bar, and exclude particular pages from navigation as needed.
Inserting navigation bars
Navigation bars can be added to any page but are typically added to the master
page—as this saves you the trouble of pasting the same element to multiple
pages.
