Hi Modelhead,
I would be very happy to travel along the same path as Edson.
Having viewed Edson's pages, it has given me the idea that on my tools navigation bar, it will lead me to a page, full of the links to all the 'tool' subjects that i need to talk about.
That will be a much clearer way, I believe, to nagivate around my site.
Great idea, thanks Edson.
Thank you Bruce
cheers
Alan.PS having viewed loads of sites for ideas, and I believe we are travelling along the right path, and getting there. At the time of this posting the site has not been updated.

@gaieus said:
Sure, it creates html files (and all the necessary folders for the images, thumbnails etc) that you just upload to your site.
However I haven't followed how this sitebuilder works - I mean whether you can custom-upload your own pages/files to the server or "just" use whatever is built into the sitebuilder software.gai, at any rate, my plan is to get the site running with sitebuilder and then export it to dreamweaver so that i can host it anywhere and insert all sorts of elements like the one you are suggesting.
cheers.

Edson,
Cool. That is the final goal anyway.
I have a whole lot of "web developer tools" (websites bookmarked) which I have already promised Bruce to share here. During the week-end I'll put together a little "package" with some very basic descriptions where you can find what and post it in this topic if you guys don't mind me interfere... -
bruce,
in order to better orientate the viewer i would like for some elements of the nav bars to be highlighted in some way (underlined, or in bold, or in a diffrent color, etc) to tell people where they are on the site. to exemplify this i posted a picture of the site in which the cyan rectangles indicate that the viewer would on the portfolio section, architecture sub-section, viewing project X.
is this possible to do with the resoursces we have?
cheers.

hi, bruce.
all of us have other stuff to do too and i (we?) am not in such a hurry. your contribution has been great so far. thus, take your time. it will be fine whenever you find time to do it.
meanwhile, i got my hands on a couple of training videos on dreamweaver cs3 which are amazingly instructive.
regards.

I will second Edson's comments. I have plenty to work on ,and any time you are free, I will take up the lessons again, when you have time.
Thank you

Hi all websitebuilders,
I just checked "Givaway of the day" website and found that they have "ConceptDraw WebWawe" for free today (for another 16 hs to download adn install).
The product is 300 bucks otherwise so it must be a powerful one (I haven't tried it yet just downloaded).
Also, read carefully the TOS.
Have fun;
Edit:
Ah well, the link -
Hi Gaieus,
thanks for that
Alan -
Hi Modehead,
Great to see you here.
Thanks for this lesson.
This feature could have a great deal of use in my project, allowing the viewer to have a 'brief overview' of what I am going to cover in a particular teach package.
This will keep me busy for tomorrow.
Thanks
Alan -
thanks, bruce. i will have a look a it tomorrow morning. a presentation rush in the last 48 hs left me almost brainless.
cheers.

Hi Modelhead,
Just picked up the latest lesson.
I will get on with that this evening.
Thank you
Alan -
I'd just like to congratulate you all on having the most viewed and most replied to thread on our board...
where's Bruce? he's the driving force behind this... and Alan and Edson... and let's not forget Dylan for starting it...
keep it coming kids...

thanks, kris. this thread sums up to me what this board is all about: we learn from each other, grow together and make friends in the process.

Hi Guys,
Yep. Second that from Edson. I would love to know how many people other than Edson and myself,who are also in the process of building their own web pages thanks to there tutorials.
Right, back to my homework.
cheers

Hi Modelhead,
Greetings.
Just finished the last. Excellent tutorial.
Only completed a folder for project 1 so far.
I will see if this link works.http://www.hand-cut-dovetails.com/complexmavigation/project1
cheers
Alan
now that did not work. Give me a minute or two.Thats better. Done.
What I like about this feature is that I will be able to give a brief overview of the topic that I will be covering. Great potential.
I will be ready to work on the next part of this teach tomorrow evening, or whenever the other guys are up to speed.
Thank you
Alan -
Hi Modelhead,
Thanks for the last. Yep Im pretty pleased with the tools. They should help considerably when I'm attempting to explain my methods.
cheers
Alan
