Clearing Spry Menu Bars within the website

[Guest]

How do I clear the spry menu bar values within a website. I am trying to create a horizontal spry menu bar on one page and then another horizontal one on another page. It keeps the same values everytime I create a new page. How do I clear the values for each page?

Thanks!

Are you referring to the style of the menu bar?  If so, DW only creates 1 CSS style sheet in the SpryAssets folder.  You would manually need to duplicate that stylesheet and link it in the appropriate document for you to see the different styles for the additional menu.

I am redesigning the website in the test environment using a new page. While doing so I am redoing the spry menu bar. It changed the spry menu bar in the original website (production environment). I would like to have the spry menu's be separate. How do you create separate spry menu bars for a situation as such?

Thanks!

If you are editing locally it should not overwrite your remote file unless you have the option "Automatically upload files to server on save" checked off.  If that is the case you should uncheck that box.

If you want to further separate the old version from the new version, the only other method is to just create a new site.  Even if you start with a duplicate of the existing site.  Then you don't risk the chance of overwriting the existing files on the server.

Will I still be able to view the pages via IE if I create a brand new site, not using the server?

Thanks!

Thank you for the help, I just tried it and yes I can view it. That is what I will have to do is create a new site and

then overwrite the existing with the new files.

Thanks again!

Yes, in fact, I would keep the testing server settings from the original site because there is no reason you should not be able to overwrite the testing server files as you are working on the new site.  I would just go to Manage Sites->Duplicate.  Then just remove the Remote Server definition and leave the Testing Server definition as is.
