Dreamweaver: Pop-Up Menu & Library

Locked

I am trying to create a navigation bar that has a pop-up menu for some of it’s links. I can get that to work fine, but when I try to make the whole navigation bar a library item, the links that are created to be the pop-up menu don’t work in the library but those button that don’t have the menu do.

Does anyone know how to get this navigation bar to work as a library item in Dreamweaver?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Then in your file where you want the menu, you would refrnce it by using:
