After going through countless "Your license appears to be invalid" messages, I finally got the Creative Menus working long enough to get one menu done. The menu works fine on the first page (index.html) that it was originally inserted into. However, after inserting the same menu into other pages, the links are acting very strangely.
The 'Home' button tries to find <pages/index.html> and all other pages in <pages/pages/name.html>. I can't figure out why it is looking in a duplicate 'pages' folder for the only 'pages'' folder on the site. The index.html is in the Root directory - not the 'pages' folder!!??
I can't think of a time when I've had more trouble with any software...ever. Even when I finally get it tp work long enough to use it...it STILL doesn't work. Very frustrating.
AND...it's still a day to day situation as to whether I get the "...license is invalid" message. Surely to God you must be able to fix this ridiculous situation.
Any answers, Support????

Hello Alan,
Here’s why the menu behaves that way :
Initially, the address in your browser is this : http://myserver.com/. When you go to a page inside the “pages” folder, you practically enter that folder, and the current address turns to http://myserver.com/pages/. Then you click again on a button, and it calls the “pages/anotherpage.html” file. But that link, because it’s relative is added to the path you already have on your address bar. So, you come up with this http://myserver.com/pages/pages/anotherpage.html. This is the normal way it should behave when you use relative links. In this case, what you can do is to use the “Update in all pages” feature to edit the menu and put the links like this “../pages/example.html” everywhere and then edit only where needed ( I know for now only that the index page is outside, just that page, and any other page that you don’t have in the same folder ). When you edit only for the index page, put the links as you did before, and don’t check the “Update in all pages” box.
The second way is to use absolute paths.
Best regards,
Andrei Rinciog
