MORE INFORMATION

A navigation bar is a set of text or button hyperlinks used for navigating a Web site. For example, a typical navigation bar may have hyperlinks to the Web site's home page and its top-level main pages. You can also display a navigation bar on every page in your Web so that visitors can quickly and easily browse through your site. You can create your own text or button hyperlinks for navigation, or you can let FrontPage generate the navigation hyperlinks for you based on the navigation structure that you have set up in Navigation view.
