There are some new navigations on the horizon for those schools who wish to make changes. Unfortunately, they must currently be created with Dreamweaver. But after being created they can be edited with FrontPage. Below are some examples of how these look:
These button styles are available as a plugin from F-source, which enables these powerful, navigation menus which do not invade the web page real estate. Charlotte at Woodmont Middle was, as far as I know, the first to introduce these to the district and you can see these at her site. Brannon, at Bryson Middle has a similar type of navigation which is web page friendly. Southside (url is currently secretive), our recently scandalous school, will soon unveil their new site which utilizes one of the above menu styles.
Another cool feature for you to consider is the new calendar in use at some schools. Brannon turned me on to this calendar which is a free download from fullrevolution.com. It is a very simple calendar to employ and once you set it up it is ongoing and easy to maintain. You will love it. No more uploading 12 calendars to your site every year. This calendar is ongoing and so easy. One of the files is an "html" file so you have to utilize and iframe for this to work. I'm in hopes that someone energetic (hint, hint, Brannon!) will be able to produce some step-by-step instructions for us, otherwise I'll try to get these done sometime soon for you all.
Keep up the great work!
