Actually, <a> is for anchor, but <a href just means that you are referencing a hyperlink, or at least I'm pretty sure that's what it means. if I am wrong, please let me know.

What matters is that your file is in the same directory as the index page if you're typing in the file name. Make sure you look carefully at punctuation when entering it in.<li><a href="newsletter.htm">Newsletter</a></li> Thanks Nimer J On 05/06/2009 09:45 AM, LISA BROOKS wrote:Tried it and it still looks the same.

On my home page http://www.wahvi.com I want people to be able to click on the newsletter link. I created a newsletter page and saved it in the public htp in the same list as index.htm and I called it newsletter.htm But on my home page when I open it in my browser there is no link just a bullet and it says newsletter. I can manually go there by typing in http://www.wahvi.com/newsletter.htm There it shows my newsletter page. What am I doing wrong in not being able to link it straight off the home page? Thanks, Lisa
