Navigation Bar Overview A navigation bar is a set of buttons or text links in a document that is used to jump to other documents in the same Web site. Namo WebEditor creates navigation bars automatically when you create a Web project using the Site Wizard. The navigation bars that Namo WebEditor creates are dynamic-- they change automatically when you make changes to the structure of the project or change the titles of the documents that they link to. Dynamic navigation bars work by making use of the site structure or navigation tree of a Web project. The navigation tree is the graph of relationships (such as parent-child and sibling-sibling) among the documents in a project. A dynamic navigation bar in a particular document can contain links to the document's children, its siblings, its parent and the parent's siblings, and so forth. When you change these relationships by editing the navigation tree, the navigation bar updates automatically to reflect the changes. Dynamic navigation bars can only be inserted into documents which belong to a project, either one created by the Site Wizard or one that you create yourself using [File > Project > New Project...]. In addition, if the project was not created by the Site Wizard, you must have created a navigation tree for the project using the Structure tab of the Site Manager. If a document does not belong to a navigation tree, it cannot contain a dynamic navigation bar.
