Probably don't need all of that, but can't hurt. Most is straightforward. The problem, is that altought the "NavBar.js" ought to create my nave bars on the right and left of my page, they just plain don't. The code inside was the exact code that used to make the NavBars before, put into a script so I can change one instance of it and the rest will be altered. It is a cleaner and more efficient coding. Why do the bars not appear? Thanks.

This post was helpful. I had a similiar problem but instead of having double quotations, I was not putting the \ after each line. The w3Schools javascript tutorial doesn't say anything about putting \ after each external link line. I spent weeks trying to figure out the problem. thanks again. --kNiFE01
