How to add hyperlinks to link bars?

[Guest]

I have created a themed website and added link bars to four pages to try to
connect the pages. The linking doesn't work between pages and if I click to
add a hyperlink the whole bar is highlighted. I am not on the web as yet,
just trying to created it on my computer. As my signature indicates I am a
Newbie at this and need HELP!

Switch to Navigation View, then drag the page you wish to link to into
navigation view and drop it where you wish the link to be.
If the new page is on another website, then switch to navigation view,
right click on an existing page (depicted by a yellow box) and choose
"Add external page" or "Add existing Page". Browse to the page or type
in its URL, drag the yellow box produced to where you want it in the
link bar.

The linking doesn't work between pages

What errors do you see with the existing links?

From where do I drag the page? In Navigation view I see the Tool Bar Chart
I sent up with the pages and a separate "chart" with the pages I set up as
well. Do I have too many "charts"?

 

[Ronx]

Each chart is a separate link bar - one will be the standard link bar,
the other a Custom bar.
You drag files to whichever link bar you wish to use from the
file/folder list on the left.
I generally only use the standard chart - this starts with the Home
page, with child pages under it. Some child pages may have their own
children.

Ronx:

Thanks for you help. As I am reading through other postings, and being the
Newbie that I am, I am thinking I have taken on more than I can handle
without more education. I am good at Publisher and other software, and
thought I could follow along the book - but that gets confusing.

I am trying to set up a four page website for our local garden club. I was
able to search around and put something together, but am now thinking that it
may be only a partial solution.

I read in another post that one shouldn't use WordArt and other draw shapes
in FP since it may not show on everyone's computer. Does that also apply to
the Theme pages?

Thanks again for you help. Happy New Year!

Themes are a collection of images, colours and fonts. These will
display in all visual browsers.


Designing for the web is not at all like designing in Publisher or any
other print based document editor.
In Publisher etc. the output is a fixed size - the paper is fixed, the
font sizes are fixed. In the web nothing is fixed. Users can change the
font, the font-size, and the size of the browser. You, the author, can
only make suggestions for these. This makes web building fun.
