Guest

Hello,
I am beginner and I created Web site in FrontPage 2002. Regular hyperlinking
between Web pages is easy. On my home page I have a different text links that
links to another Web pages, but when return to home page always return to top
or beginning of home page and not to sequnced text in Web site-home page.
Please help me with that problem!
Thanks

If I understand your issue, you need to look at creating a bookmark at the link on the home page,
and then have a return link on the other pages back to the specific bookmark. See Help for creating
and working with bookmarks.

Thomas is right. Create a bookmark on the first page then create a link
on the second page that goes to the bookmark on the first page.

Assuming both pages are in the same folder, the link on the second page
will point to "page1.html#bookmark"

If you leave the page out like this "#bookmark" it points to a bookmark
within the same page.

You may want learn basic HTML coding for links.

Thank for fast respond.
It doesn't work, because pages are not in same folder. It's like several
Mini sites pointing to home page. I read about how to do in HTML code, but
don't know where to put that in Front page HTML (assume in body) I am far
away of HTML expert and will need time to learn, but my Web site is ready to
go- only that hyperlink is missing.
I really appreciate your concerns
Thank you

It doesn't matter what folder the pages are in, as long as they within the web.

Here are the instructions in FP2000 in normal view.

1. First create the bookmark in the page you want to have a bookmark
within the page.

Highlight some text (word or line) at the location you want to create a
bookmark, then Click Insert -->Bookmark and type/edit the bookmark name.
I suggest you use a single "word" without space.

2. Create a link on another page

Highlight the text want to hyperlink. Then click Insert -->Hyperlink.
For URL enter the absolute or relative URL to the page you want to
linkwiht the bookmark liek the examples below.

/basefolder/page.html#bookamark is a link to a page on basefolder onthe
same web.

somefolder/page.html#bookmark is a link in page located in a subfolder
in the same folder.

http://myweb/basefolder/page.html#bookmark is an absolute link.

Now, if youre working on frontpage web, instead of typing the URL you
can clik the browse icon on the hyperlink dialog until you locate the
file/page you want to link to. On the same dialog there is bookmark
field. Click the down arrow to select the desired bookmark from the list
of available bookamrs. Then click OK.
