I have been driving myself mad on this issue. I would be very grateful for
any advice! I run a website for a charity in the UK (Wales):

http://www.epilepsy-wales.co.uk

The easiest way to decribe my issue is to ask you to look at the web itself.
Go to Home>Support Groups>Youth Groups>Bridgend/Cefn Cribwr. There are 3
groups in the Youth Groups. All the links to each other work except one -
Merthyr is missing in the left hand links on the Bridgend/Cefn Cribwr page.

I have tried everything I know (refresh, recalculate hyperlinks etc), but
have had to give up. Anyone have any ideas what I could check?

Many thanks
 
Hi Gareth
There is no link in the source code to Merthyr. links are defined by the
<a> tag and closed by </a>
your code is

<nobr>Bridgend/Cefn&nbsp;Cribwr</nobr><br> <nobr><a
href="neath_port_talbot.htm" target="">Neath/Port&nbsp;Talbot</a></nobr></p>
so you will have to put the folowing in link section

<a href="merthyr.htm" target="">Merthyr</a>
like
<nobr>Bridgend/Cefn&nbsp;Cribwr</nobr><br> <nobr><a
href="neath_port_talbot.htm"
target="">Neath/Port&nbsp;Talbot</a></nobr><br><nobr><a href="merthyr.htm"
target="">Merthyr</a></nobr></p>


There are also a lot of tags which indicate that the text has been created
in word and copied and pasted into front page, tage like msnormal If you are
taking text from word or other ms products its best to copy them into note
pad which will remove any tags and then copy from notepad into frontpage and
use frontpage to style the
text.

I am really grateful for your response. Although I have said it does not
answer my query, this is not altogether fair on your response. The problem
is that I am a complete novice in the areas of tags, souces codes etc. This
is only my fourth web design and I have simply designed the web using text
and let Front Page more or less do the rest. I am certainly happy to give
this a go, but I do not even know how I get to the area which contains these
tags and source codes. Are you able to give me some brief advice on this?

Can I also thank you for the tip on using Wordpad. I will certainly do this
in future. Much appreciated.
 
Hi Gareth

With frontpage open and a webpage open look at the bottom and you will see
Design, split, code, preview , click on the split tab and a pane will
open with the page code.

Thanks again Paul. I believe my problem is that I am using Front Page 2002.
The options you describe appear in 2003. In 2002 the only options are
Normal/HTML and Preview. Might see if I can get an upgrade via eBay

Once again thanks for taking the time out to help - much appreciated.
 
Glad to help

Check that Merthyr is in the navigation view, along side Bridgend/Cefn
Cribwr and Neath/Port Talbot - if it is not there, drag the page in.
Otherwise change anything in the Navigation view and go back to folders
view to save the navigation.
