Default Help Building HTML Pages Plz - 05-08-2008 , 11:59 PM






Hello,

This is my first time to post in the support forums. please forgive me if I
don't use the correct jargon. I am not very technology literate.

I purchased dreamweaver a few months ago. I used it to build my first website
called cajun crawfish pie (yes, I am from Louisiana). I think it looks pretty
good now, but I am not understanding a few things.

My biggest problem is understanding how to save a new html page correctly. I
want the page structure to be something like domain/sub/sub-sub. Does that
make sense?

Like I have a page on http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com/louisiana.html (the link
here should work I hope). I also have a page on
http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com/bato...louisiana.html. It should really
be http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com / louisiana / baton-rouge. Instead the url
for baton rouge is http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com/bato...louisiana.html .
See what I mean? I don't know how to save a page with the / in it to make
baton rouge a sub of Louisiana.

Can anyone help me? if I didn't explain this well, just tell me what you need
to know. Thank you in advance!!

George

Hi,

You have to make a folder named louisiana and then save the
baton-rouge-louisiana.html page in that folder and give the link to the
hyperlink as louisiana/baton-rouge-louisiana.html.

Hope it helps.

If you want someone to type in:
http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com/louisiana/baton-rouge/
and get this page. First create a folder in the root folder and name it
louisiana. Then create a folder inside of that and name it: baton-rouge. Now
save your page inside that folder as index.html, and when people type in said
address they will get your page.

In the address : http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com/louisiana/baton-rouge/, the
http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com is your domain name. The "/folder_name/" tells
the server to go into that folder to get something.

When you name your page index.html, there can be only one with this name per
folder, but the reward is all you have to do is type up to that folder to get
it. The browser will look for this name automaticly.

Now if you want it to read:
http://www.cajuncrawfishpie.com / louisiana / baton-rouge.html
save the page as baton-rouge.html inside the louisiana folder. Again the down
side is the whole address including baton-rouge.html has to be typed in.

Hope that helps.
