Turn off navigation in gallery generated page

Question

Turn off navigation in gallery generated page

I have iWeb 3.0.4 and am using it properly for the first time to rebuild my website. I am self taught so have a limited knowledge. I have turned off the 'include page in navigation menu' and 'display navigation menu' on every page of my website and created my own navigation bar using an image and then text boxes with hyperlinks. All was going fine until I created a photo gallery page. I created it in a separate page and then copied it into my own page design. It's fine until you click on one of the photos which takes you to another page automatically generated by iWeb. On the actual gallery page I have removed my own created navigation bar and all the navigation options are deselected to see if I could work it out but still when you click on a photo the page that is automatically generated is showing the navigation menu created by iWeb and I don't want it! As it's a page automatically generated I can't see it to edit the options. Anyone got any ideas please?!

Here's some links:

The menu you see is actually your own custom menu.

The menu is in the Footer layer at the bottom of the page, and like the menus on the other pages, you moved them up -850px to locate them at the top of the page.

Why not put the menu links in the Header layer? In front of the buttons you have there :

Or do it my way :

My buttons are in the header layer, on top of my navbar image. I just removed them to see if it was them that was causing the problem. The menu that you're seeing has been automatically generated. I think I've sorted it now. I think the problem was that I had copied across the gallery from the page that iWeb created so it was no longer an album type page. I created a new album page on the white theme, deleted everything else on the page apart from the gallery and then rebuilt it and it seems to work now. Thanks for your response though, I will check out your links.

I'm interested to know what you mean by "The menu is in the Footer layer at the bottom of the page, and like the menus on the other pages, you moved them up -850px to locate them at the top of the page"

I don't understand that! Is it something I have done wrong?
