Background colour of main menu "current page" item  en

Author: Michael R.

Formatting the background color of the selected ("current") page is correctly displayed in the WebSite X5 Evo Preview but not when the project is exported to disc and opened in the browser.

See attached examples:

clip (left) Evo menu: chosen background color of the main menu "current page" (blue)

clip (top right Evo Preview): the background color is shown correctly in the main menu (selected page)

clip (bottom right view in Firefox): no background color for the selected page in Firefox (note that the problem is the same in Chrome or IE)

please advise how to solve this issue so the selectd background color is correctly shown in the main menu bar.

Thanks and best regards

Michael

Hello. Hold down the Ctrl key and, without releasing it, press the Preview button. Then clear the cache in your browsers and check the site.

Dear Aleksey,

thank you for the quick response. I did as you recommended, i.e. generated a preview in X5 while holding the control key, then exported the project to disc again. Before that I had cleared the cache in Firefox but when I opened the project it still shows the same behavior.

Its the same with the IE.

I'm afraid that didn't work.

Michael, the current page will display correctly in preview and when online, but not when exported to disk and opened locally in your favourite browser because it uses the full domain name path to identifify the current page.

I vaguely remember that you can change the path to local host? But unless you remember to change it to the true domain name before uploading the current page will not display when online.

thanks for the advise. I am not planning to upload the project to an online host, I will only use it locally on my computer. Maybe I will find out later once the project is completed how to change that path - for now I think its o.k., just a bit odd that all other formatting in the menu works except this one. Best regards.
