Hello Everyone:
I am new to this forum, and new to web design.
I have just recently published my domain with Bluehost, through the page wizard.
My problem is that I cannot for the life of me figure out how to attach my link buttons to the actual pages of my site.
Can someone explain to me in a "links for dummies" manor on how to accomplish this. If you would like to see my site first it is listed as bayterracetransit.com.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Vito

Maybe your files are in a different folder from the one the link is pointing to.

When I click, for instance, Hunter Info, the address I see is
bayterracetransit.com/templates/1/hunter.html

That means that hunter.html is inside a folder called 1, which is itself in a folder called templates.

Is that where those files really are?

OK. I'll look in from time to time--although I hope your problem gets solved before I look again. It's very hard at the beginning.
I've had some great help myself.;)

If you have access to the HTML code, a link looks like this


<a href="http://www.yahoo.com/">Yahoo!</a>

Victor,

It looks to me like you are trying to link to a place in the current web page. If so, you need to create an anchor that identifies the name of the division. It is important to use the pound sign.

For example: <a href="#fred">link to fred</a>. This is a link to a place in the current file identified by the name "fred".

You can link to a named spot in another file using this convention: <a href="file.html#fred">link to fred</a>
