so projectme.php became index.html or index.php? I can't make heads or tails of which page is what right now...If you want a page to be the 'index' and it contains php, then call it index.php and make sure all the other pages link to index.php.Also, trying clearing out your browsers cache.

Sorry i meant to say projectme.html. I know how to reference. If you look through my first code file you will see i already have dont that. What i dont understand is , when i click on one of my pages(on the home tab- which is index.html) other then the index.html, then it takes me to the index.php, and that is correct. When i click on my index.html page e.g about-us.html, then it tell me, the page dont exist. So what is wrong in my index.html, like i said before i have made the proper chaanges, but it still dont wanna work.

Hello! ^.^I am a little confused at your question, maybe I read it wrong? Could you provide the names of each file with it eg projectme.html or index.php or whatever. I am sorry if it is only me who became confused reading your post.One thing I noticed is that many of your addresses are absolute but point to your hard-drive (c:) does dreamweaver allow you to convert these en mass to the addresses you will be using online? If not maybe relative addresses may help as if you place your public_html folder in the root of the c: drive you can use the same relative addresses as you would use once it is online. The second page you gave uses (kinda - see below) suitable relative addressing though.So I think you created ProjectMe.php, then re-named it to index.html and now your links are not working? You said you click on "home" and you are taken to the index.html, this is normal. Maybe you meant to link to somewhere else if so I would call the link something other than home. Or is it that you have projectme.php and index.html? If so then it is the addresses that are probably the problem. Lets look at this for a second:

<a href="file:///C|/Documents and Settings/Anthony/My Documents/Anthony/contack_Us.html" class="navText">CONTACT</a>

Firstly this is an absolute address to your hard-drive so if you are testing this online it will not work. Secondly there is a possible typo at the end of the address, "contack_Us.html". I am having a guess that this should be "contact_us.html"? Thirdly is this stored in the same folder as the target? If so try a relative address like you have on the second page and you should not have problems. So I would try this maybe and add class etc once it works:

<a href="/contact_us.html">CONTACT</a>

There is this on the second page:

<a href="index.html">HOME</a>

Which is certainly a link to index.html in the public_html folder. However for me I would have to write:

<a href="/index.html">HOME</a>

for the link to work properly. The / before index.html tells the browser to look in the root of the server, in most cases as far as we are concerned that is the public_html folder, then the file name comes after.I dont know if that is any help at all as I am a little confused as to what you are asking!Good luck! ^.^bOh you just posted, well

<td width="160"><a href="file:///C|/Documents and Settings/Anthony/My Documents/Anthony/About_US-4.html" class="navText">ABOUT US</a></td>

and

When i click on my index.html page e.g about-us.html, then it tell me, the page dont exist.

That explains that maybe. You have a file called about-us.html? You have linked to "About_US-4.html" which is a different document. I would call it "about_us.html" all in lower-case with a standard underscore space between words to ensure that you dont get confused.Sorry I am still a little confused. I think I need a cup of tea! ^.^

do you have the correct addresses throughout everypage in your site?Personally, I think you should do what mehashi said, and just make a root folder and put all your pages in it, with an images folder inside that for your images. That way you can get out of having absolute addresses and use relative addresses instead, which will most likely cut down on spelling errors and will help you out infinitely when it comes time to uploading these pages to a server. I would do this and then go through each page and change the links to the new relative addresses. Should be much less of a hassle just pointing to "about_us.html" rather than "////C://Documents......blah blah blah...../web_folder/about_us.html". Hope that helps some. I mean, if the pages aren't showing up when you click/link to them, then it's most likely a spelling/address problem.
