A B Tross Posted March 8, 2003 Posted March 8, 2003 Hello, new to this home page building stuff so any help would be appreciated. My partner and I design courses for on-line golf sims, and are building a home site to show off our wares, Irontross.com. I have a handle on the main page and it is well on its way. Trouble is, if you look at it you will see 2 smaller pics near the bottom. I would like to make those and the ones to follow links to sub-pages that deal with each particular golf course. I have one of these pages started, contains a test pic, and it is in my public.html folder. Is that the right place for it? And the big question for me is, having tried a few different attempts at making a .jpg or even a "link" word into a working link to this page has failed. Writing the script out in the right fashion is my trouble. I'm stummped on it. I-ve tried using what i see on other pages and on various html help sites....... Quote
Lianna Posted March 8, 2003 Posted March 8, 2003 First, the home page of your site should be loaded to directory public_html (not public.html). If you can then give us the address (URL) of the page, we can take a close look at what you have done. What are you using to create your pages? Notepad, Frontpage, Dreamweaver or another application? Typically, linking an image to a page would look something like this: ><A HREF="http://www.thedomain.com/page.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Description of linked page"><U><IMG SRC="imagename.jpg" border=0 width="90" height="90" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A> And then less or more tags as appropriate for your circumstance.

A B Tross Posted March 8, 2003 Author Posted March 8, 2003 Istover: thanks for that information. the url I was pointing at is www.Irontross.com. I used your suggestion and got what I wanted to work. I used frontpage to get started on the main page, however, i have been using notepad to make the pages that will go with it. also i d/led HTML-kit to give that a look see a few hours ago. thinking the biggest obsticle to me right now is to much info from to many places, LOL. I was using the directory public_html. I will be handed another golf course plot this evening to landscape, which will limit my time for page building. But I will be back for more assistance no dooubt. again, thanks! Quote
Lianna Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 Glad you got that linking to work. Listen, if you don't have much time to create web pages, I'll make you a suggestion and add to your already overloaded info-base: CuteSITE Builder! WYSIWYG site designing tool. No need to know HTML. Very flexible and super easy to use. You could knock out a 10 page site in an hour....or two. Lianna Quote
timur Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 and how or where u have to upload like if u make a page like page1.html and upload to public_html or somethign?????? Quote
KevinW Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 that's exactly right .. your html pages (like page1.html) need to be uploaded into the public_html directory. You cxan do this either by using the File Manager feature of cPanel, or use an FTP utility. For FTP utilites, go to the TCH Help Site and click on FTP. We not only give you links to various FTP providers, but also we give you movie tutorials that you can learn from! Wahoo! -kw Quote
