View Full Version : New and need help
acox27 05-01-2003, 08:44 PM First I will say HI, and that I am new.
I am always on the internet, and within the past couple months have used to use Paint Shop Pro and fun programs like that. Anyway, I joined some online classes to learn more, but I need help with my wepage first. I am pretty new to doing this web design stuff, and have a few questions.
I have a webpage that I created with Geocites a while ago and I updated it recently, but it has always just been a one page site. Anyway, what I need to know is how to make additional pages to my webpage and have links to them on my homepage? Did that make sense? I read all of lisa's site, and printed out the stuff that I think will help me, but it is all confusing. I think what I need is a new frame and then button links??? But I am completely lost in how to do this.
Can someone please help me and explain this to me in terms I can understand?
Thanks,
Amber

This is going to be hard to explain. You know the file manager at geocites? How you clicked create a file? Do that again. Type in a file name, like, picturegallery.html , or mainpage.html .
Then, in the page that you want that page to go to, you put:
<a href="filename here">Link text Goes Here</a>
If you want it to open in another window, type:
<a href="filename here" target="new">Link text Goes Here</a>
acox27 05-01-2003, 10:31 PM OK, I have a new file that I named the other day. (like you had said picturegallery.html, or mainpage.html)
Then you said that in the page that I want this page to go to I put that code. So I put that code in the body of my front page of my home page? Cause I just want it to take you there, and not open a new window.
I have the new filename as homework.html and that is what I am needing to open up when you click on the second page.
So my code would look like <a href="homework.html">Link text goes here</a>? What goes in place of "link text goes here"? Is this where I put what kind of text I want the link to look and so on?
Sorry for all the questions, but I told you I really had no clue.

Sorry, wouldn't let me make it clickable.
acox27 05-01-2003, 10:34 PM let me make it clickable. Well, now you can see what I mean. It is only a single page and I just need a link to go to a second page, and how to do the second page.

acox27 05-01-2003, 11:15 PM I got a link and it actually goes to the page I need it to. Not that there is anything on that page yet, but at least it goes there. Now that I have learned all this neat stuff from this site, I can put it to good use.
Thank you all so much for your help. If I have more questions, and I am sure I will, I will be back.
Thanks,
Amber
