publishing issue

[ahelmore]

As a first time builder of a website, I've read the tutorials, forums ,etc and have not found the solution to my problem. I've published my site www.kneemanbarkusbakery.com home page (index) and it works. The second page, about_us, loads in a new window. Therefore, there are two windows open at the same time instead of transitioning from one to the other. It may be a simple name change but I'm too frustrated to find it. Thanks for some help.

Re: publishing issue

Set the "target" of the link to "_self" instead of "_blank"

Re: publishing issue

That's so easy. Where did I miss that explanation in the tutorials?

Re: publishing issue

I spoke too quickly. The pages loaded correctly and I could use the button to get to about_us but could not go back to the home page (index). Where can I find the info about using the elements of "_self", "_blank", etc?

Re: publishing issue

I don't know of a specific link, but there really isn't much to them at all.

Literally all there is to it is the "target" determines where the link is opened.

"_self" is the same window
"_blank" is a new window

there are two others used in frames and only frames, if you don't use frames (which you shouldn't unless you absolutely have to), you don't have to worry about these two below.

"_top"
"_parent"

The reason you link to home does not work is because it goes to "home.html", but it should be "index.html"

Re: publishing issue

I've corrected that but when you hit the button to get back to the home page (index) from the "about us", it brings up the explorer screen saying that it can not display the page). Will be pleased to get over this hurdle so I can add some more pages.

Thank you

Re: publishing issue

Your link is going to

http://kneemanbarkusbakery/index.html

but it needs to be

http://kneemanbarkusbakery.com/index.html

You just forgot the .com

Re: publishing issue

It is working properly now and I'll soon try to add another page. Thank you very much for your help. If I ever get through this process I'll feel a great sense of accomplishment.
