HI, The current menu structure automatically inserts a link tot he page when it is added to the site. Great, but now I find myself needing to add a link to a subdomain. The subdomain is not under control of the everweb layout. So thus far I tried to just add a simple textbox and make that a link. Although this looks ok in Safari, chrome etc, good old IE "F's it up and changes the width of the menubar in such a way that certain items on the menubar fall behind the separate text-box-link. So to prevent this from happening, it would be nice of it were possible to add a link to the menu without having to add a page. Is there any other viable way to do this ? Peter |

You can do this by creating an empty page or directory and adding a meta refresh. See this page for more info about a meta refresh. The code is added to the head code box of the blank page. Use a relative or absolute URL depending on where the target files are located with zero delay like this… <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://domain-name.com/page.html" /> ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Roddy, thanks for this info. Been trying to figure out how to do that, it works great. But, to take it a bit further, is there any way to get that external menu link to open in a new window?

Not that I know of. If you want to do that sort of thing you would be better off setting up a custom menu on a master page so that you can access the HTML to add the target to the link. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!
