Glad you gallery is working OK, Daniel - you’ve got some good shots
there.
However, I have to agree with David about your heading. Also, as you
have used graphic text, it won’t be read by search engines. Although
you have rectified that with an Alt tag description, it would also
help your ranking to have your name, service (photographer) and
location somewhere in the body of the home page.
With regard to underlining, David’s method is fine, but if you are
allergic to code you can click on the pasteboard alongside the page,
got to the page inspector and select the second tab. You’ll find Links
at the bottom where you can choose the colours you want for links and
can toggle underline on and off with the ‘u’ button on the right. This
sets parameters globally for the page, and on a master page, for all
pages using that master.
The missing grey submenu background is a mystery to me at the moment.
The whole menu appears fine in Safari, but not in Firefox. Worse,
however, is that the Galleries submenu doesn’t show at all in IE6 on a
PC (I’ll try and check IE& later). I suggest you remake your menu,
step by step, from scratch to eliminate anything you may have done
when first producing it and (I suspect you made changes as you did
so) Many people seem to have early problems with menus - including
me, but once you are used to them they usually work out fine.
Also, when using the CSS Menu Action, make sure your list is in in the
default state and double check that the setting for the main menu and
the submenus are set to the link colours and backgrounds you want. In
your case, too, leave the underline checkbox unchecked.

Hi Daniel you may have struggled but I think you have done well and
it will be so much easier the next time.
Firstly I would like to make a couple of comments about things.
I have difficulty with your Logo strapline Daniel Bruyn Photography
- for me the blue you have used on ‘Photography’ does not work
against your Dark grey page background - it makes it very indistinct
and I dont know if it is an anti-alias setting or not.
The colour for your dropdowns is not a big enough contrast to the
text in there. Again I am having difficulty reading it.
As far as your underlines go you may be as well to define a style
for your CSS menu such as
#cssmenuitem text-decoration:none
Where the #part is the name of the css menu item container
1 Create a new style
2 In the tag field type# followed by the name of your css menu item
container (under title in the inspector)
3 Tab into the Name box of the New Style dialogue box and delete
whatever FW put in there
4 Click on Extended and put text-decoration in the name field with
the value of none
5 OK the dialogue boxes until you are out
This will mean that any text in that css menu container will have no
underline.
Hope this helps
David
