Hey im new to html and im just trying to make a website. I know the basic tags for backrounds, picture, colors, font etc. But theres one thing im havin trouble with. Im tryin to make more then one webpage on my site like having on the side a list of the webpages and u click it and it will take u to that part of your website. How would you do that, im just using a program to write in and saving it as .htm but do i need to make a new file and write all the codes out again and link it to open in the same window or how would i do that. Sorry if it isn't very clear wut im sayin but anything would help.<br />

hth<!--content-->well, yes, you could do that, or just copy/paste the code. what program are you using?<!--content-->im just using notepad for now and if im still interested I'll probably buy a promgram. Is there better programs to use for free or anything like that? Ill check out that site too.<br />
Thx<!--content-->Thx for that site exept it never told me the codes I would need to make a navigation and how to make the pages. I have the main page and im going to put a navigation on the side with all the pages of my site. The problem is I don't know what to do to make those pages, do i do it in the same file or make a new file in notepad. And also how will I do the navigation i have a backround on my page so i'm simpy just writing the navigation in probably bolded white. I just need to know how to do the pages and navigation. And help will be greatly appreciated.<br />

Im really confused so sry if im not making much sense. So this is wut I have done. Ok i made wut is goin to be my homepage in notepad and have it saved as mysite.htm. If i do that for every page won't that just be a bunch of sites?? Im going to be using freewebs because that has been sugested. So if anyone can plz go threw how to make the pages and then make them a website that will really help. Also if anyone can tell me how do i put the navigation on the side of the page. I am just going to put like 6 categories on the navbar so how will i make the pages?? And last how do i make it so when i click the category it takes me to that page on my site? Thank you for any help sorry if i'm sounding like an idiot but I don't know to much about all this. So once again any help will be apreciated. If any one has some codes they can give me to help me with this so i can copy and paste them that would also help a ton.<!--content-->I'm not sure what you're looking for, but<br />
<br />
pretend this is you index.html file:<br />
<br />
<html><br />
<head><br />
<title>Example</title><br />
</head><br />
<body><br />
<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"page2.htm">Click here for Page 2</a><br />
</body><br />
</html><br />
<br />
<br />
This is page2.htm (in the same directory as index.html):<br />
<br />
<br />
<html><br />
<head><br />
<title>Page 2</title><br />
</head><br />
<body><br />
<p>It worked!</p><br />
</body><br />
</html><!--content-->Just done a setup for you...<br />

:cool:<!--content-->ok thx alot man. That was alot more help than i expected to get but that really helped. Ok so i got 2 pages as of now. 1 is homepage.htm and the other is aboutme.htm. I got my title at the top on my homepage and i got a navigation bar started. The navigation bar says Site Navigation in big bold letters and below it is the about me page. It sends me to the about me page when i click it. So should i just continue making the rest of the pages like this or am i doing something wrong? Also one last thing for now, u said something about an index.html would that be the same as my homepage.htm ? Again thx alot to everyone<!--content-->Your adres like <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.yoursite.com">www.yoursite.com</a><!-- w --><br />
wil open the index file.<br />
So the first page has to be index.html<br />
<br />
homepage.htm if it is the first page must have te name index.html or index.htm<br />
<br />
And follow the links:<br />
