[RubyTuesday]

Greetings everyone..... Above all odds, I have made my own homepage and was quite pleased with it, so I took the bull by the horns and made a second one!!!!

I need to know how I put a clickable link on my first homepage to enable people to get to my second homepage

I haven't the first idea as to how to do this.....please can someone help me?

Cheers people....xx

where have you created the pages ....
you should have a 1stpage.htm file on the server - you then have created a secondpage and put that on the server 2ndpage.htm

so on the first page put
<a href="2ndpage.htm">this is a link to my second page</a>

Hi Etaf....

thanks for trying to help, but unfortunately it didn't work!!!!!

[etaf]

well it should work but we need more info

the files need to be in the same place
The name needs to be correct
why not zip up the two files and post here...

The files need to be located within the same directory structure. It is easiest to have them both in the same directory. If they are in the same directory, the following should have worked (as posted before)

<a href="2ndpage.htm">this is a link to my second page</a>

If this did not work, try the following:

<a href=".\2ndpage.htm">this is a link to my second page</a>

If they are in different directories, you can do the following:

<a href="<RELATIVE PATH TO 2ND FILE>\2ndpage.htm">this is a link to my second page</a>
Where the relative path is with respect to the location of the first page. For example, if your directory structure is:

HOME
->File1.html
->SUBDIR
->File2.html

The command would be:

<a href=".\SUBDIR\2ndpage.htm">this is a link to my second page</a>

Hope this helps.

what are the names of the two files?

RubyTuesday:

1. Post the URL to your second homepage.
2. Then I will, or someone else will post the appropriate code to use to make the link.
3. (I personally like this one the best). Go to www.w3schools.com and then learn HTML or XHTML by your self like most others did as it is probably the easiest type of web based programming you can.
