Well the first question was to difficult, so I'll try a different approach. I want to add a new page to my website.

Where do I put the new page?

How do I link it to the home page?

Thanks,

What is your website address?

[Blue Sparrow]

Not sure why you need that, but okay.

www.casebeerfamily.site40.net

Maybe you need to see where the link sends ya.

The link that is not working is the About CFN link


Thanks,

Use relative addressing. You "could" use absolute addresses (putting the whole http:// deal), but it's a waste of time and will become frustrating if you move files around or switch to another server.

Basically, when using relative addressing, you're telling the server "go to this location from where you currently are". If the file you're linking is in the same directory as the current file, you can link to it simply by using the file name as the location. If the file resides in a folder called test and the test folder is in the folder you're linking from, you can use 'test/<your_file>' as the address. Moving up a directory tree can be done with "../" (e.g. "../index.html" will take you to the indexing file of the parent directory).

====

I went to your website, and the problem is you're including "public_html" in the address. Although public_html is a folder on your site, it IS the actual site. For future reference, cut the link to just "index2.html".

====

I should also add that everything that you want to have displayed on your website has to be in the public_html folder. I take it that's probably why your images aren't showing up either.

Thanks, Devastator!

A simple deletion from the tree.

now, my next obstacle adding pictures and graphics. What do I label or index the file as?

my thought is ...'sitepics.gif' would that work?

Doesn't matter. Call it fred_ice_cream_PARTY.gif if you want, don't see why you would.
