FP Navigation Tool

When you use the Web Site Wizard, many pages will be created for you. As you open Navigation View via the menu bar (View - Navigation), the pages the wizard created will already be visible. My web is viewed above, in its unfinished state. You can see how my web is structured. There are 4 pages linked directly to the home page, and 3 to the help section, and so forth and so on.

You can change the structure and the links between the pages just by dragging the page icon to the new position. You will see the page's umbilical cord hanging out the top; when you get the page into its desired position the cord will attach itself and FrontPage will complete the changes for you.

Pages can be removed from the web, or just from navigation view, just by right clicking on a page.

You can also change their names, add new pages, and choose to have pages included in Nav Bars, among other actions. (We'll talk about Nav Bars in the Shared Borders page.)

When I was ready to add this page to my web, I positioned my cursor over the page titled "Front Page", right clicked, and chose New Page. A new page appeared, much like the one under the HTML page above. I then right clicked on the New Page, and chose Rename. When the dialog box popped up, I typed in Navigation. The page was automatically added to my sites navigation, and can now be found in page view. (The column on the left where you click on the pages to open them.)

The fly out made available when you right click a page in Navigation View. (Click on it to view larger version.)
