AJX Menu Bar will not operate correctly in my website

Please bare with me as I am very new to dreamweaver. I created an entire website from scratch, very proud of myself, but now I've uploaded it onto my server and the ajx menu I found and inserted into the template files for my site does not look the way it does when I view it on dreamweaver. I think it is where I have it housed in my folder on the computer but I can't find anything online telling me where it needs to be saved to operate correctly in my files. Can anyone help me that knows how to do this correctly or knows HTML to see what I have set up incorrectly? Any help is greatly appreciated at this point in time. I am starting to get really frustrated. Thanks,

Arielle

It is still there on the landing page of the website, I haven't removed it from there yet.


This is one heck of a mess. 

Notice this link location:

http://lovelandmediacenter.com/Templates/lovelandmediacenter/public_html/websitepages/adjuvantlogopage.html

Too many sub, sub-folders.  If your site was properly defined, the link path would look like this:

adjuvantlogopage.html

Let's start with your site definition.  Where do you keep your local site folder?  It should be something very simple like C:\\MyTestSite  or C:\\lovelandmediacenter    See screenshot from Site > Manage Sites.

Once your local site is defined, you can open your Files Panel to see the file hierarchy.  Ideally it should be very simple like this screenshot where index.html is the site's home page.  Assets are in their respective folders -- css, js, images, etc....

Now if you click on Define Servers, you can make sure your remote server is properly defined.   In your case, the server's Root Directory appears to be public_html.

Once your site is defined, you can Expand your Files Panel and compare the Remote server with Local Files.  NOTE:  these should be nearly identical.

Can you answer my question?

your navigation.css file is missing from the server, or uploaded to the wrong location.

404 File Not Found:

Line 8 - ../navigation.css

Line 50: ../../ajxmenu.css

Line 51: ../../ajxmenu.js

Line 52: ../../Templates/ajxmenu.css

Line 53: ../../Templates/ajxmenu.js


Thank you, I do see I don't have that anywhere in my files. I don't know if this will help any but here is how my root folder is built out.

The template folder holds this:

The lovelandmediacenter is my destination folder which holds this, public_html holds everything else:

index is my actual landing page. the other sub pages are in the websitepages folder.

Did I set this up completely wrong? Does anyone know where my navigation.css would end up? I was mirroring a previous folder we had hosting the last website before we recreated it.

If you can't help any further I understand, thank you.
