Same homepage links on all new pages

Guest

HI,
On an existing website I made a new home page and saved it as the same name
as the existing one. How do I get my new homepage links to carry over onto
the other pages they are linked to without changing each page, one at a
time?The old links were on the side, the new ones are on the top. Right now
my new links on top link to the pages with the links on the side.
Thanks

Sounds like you embedded the navigation into each page separately. If so,
you will have to edit each page. Don't re-create the problem, though. Use
shared borders or frames to put your links in just one place.

If you use shared borders, for example, all your links will be placed on one
page, which will reside in the [ _borders] folder. Every page will have this
border. You'll see your old links, but they'll be inside the new border with
the new links. You then have to remove the old links from each page.

Hi,
Can I still put a shared border on my default page or do I have to start all
over?

You can add a shared border at anytime.

When in my default page I go to "format", "shared borders" and "shared
borders" is grayed out. How do I get the borders in to begin with. Thanks

You have to have a web / site open and not just a page first.
