Hyperlinks

[Donna in Idaho \(remove invalid\)]

Don't have time to read through the 39,000 messages I just downloaded, so
please forgive me if this question has been asked and answered 40 times.

Using Front Page 2000. I created hyperlinks to two pages on my website.
They work fine while working within Front Page, but when I publish it to the
web, they don't work. Any suggestions? I'm using Tripod for my website.

This usually occurs because you linked files outside the
local copy of you Web. Of course, those same outside
locations aren't available on your "live"Web site.

Always open a FrontPage Web site (via File, Open Web)
before making any changes. And even then, don't link
directly to files on your disk. Instead:

1. First add the files to your Web site.
2. Link to the location inside your Site.

If you still can't figure this out, please post the
failing URL to this thread.

Which 2 hyperlinks don't work? All the ones I selected worked fine.

The files are on my website and linked to locations inside my site.

The two links that don't work are June 2003 and February 2004.

I went back and did it all again, republished to my website, and it works
fine now. Guess I wasn't holding my mouth right the first time around.

Thanks for the help, anyhow!
