Home button missing from NAV bar

[jxm28788]

To get more flexibility in the nav bar I have replaced the FOOTERGUIDE variable with the individual variables as per the online help. However, the home button doesn't appear to work.

As a test I used this bit of code which shows my menu followed by the proper NAV menu. As you can see the Home button is appearing just fine in the NAV menu (verifying that the home button is applicable to that page) but it is missing from my menu bar on the left.

| NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBHOME | NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBLOGIN | NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCART | NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCHECKOUT ... NETQUOTEVAR:FOOTERGUIDE

Result on screen -

| | Login    | View Basket    | Checkout    ... Up    Home    Search    View Basket    Checkout    Contact Us    Login

Any ideas why the NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBHOME button is not working?

oh wait, never mind - the home button is NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCATALOG ("Catalog button") not NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBHOME ("Home button").

Next Question - How do I replace the text buttons with graphics? The help file said that some templates used the text and some the graphics - but didn't say how to switch...

stick the word LINK on the end of the NQV

ie NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBHOMELINK

to get a text link rather than using an image

I want to do it the other way round - my template is using text, I want to use graphics instead...

Design | Options | Navigation, 'Home Page Icon', you can define your graphic here.

Kind regards,

there are already graphic there - and text. I assume there is someway of switching between them? At the moment it is using the text not the graphics...

Sorry, you will have to edit the navigation template. For the catalog pages, Go to Advanced | Template Manager | Main | Nav. Item, that should open "Act_NavigationItem.html", change NETQUOTEVAR:NAVTEXT to read NETQUOTEVAR:NAVIMAGE. Similarly for the brochure pages on the Brochure tab, though I do not see the reason for having a Home icon on the brochure page.

Kind regards,
