> Why not just add regular hyperlinks somewhere on the page?

I am putting my old navbar back, but on the bottom of each page. So
people will -hopefully - see the animated navbar at the top, but if
they don't, will scroll down to see if there is one - and see the
hyperlink one at the bottom.

My site is an ezine full of articles, so people will be reading the
pages from top to bottom anyway and so should be able to see that
bottom nav bar if they can't see the top one. Of course some of the
articles are very long, but....

I'll give that solution two weeks ... if my hits continue to go down,
will move the old bar back to the top and ditch the shockwave thing.

Thanks all for your responses.
