I have a GeoCities page, and I think I know what you're talking about. If ya want to link to another page on your site from your homepage or whatever, you use a certain HTML code.

For example, here's what one of mine looks like:

<P ALIGN="CENTER"><A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/nancymckeonlinkssite/DivisionSites.html" target=right><B><I><FONT FACE="Pristina" SIZE=4 COLOR="#ff00ff">The Division Sites</B></I></FONT></A><FONT COLOR="#ff00ff"></P>

I aligned it so it would be centered, but if you don't want that just don't put that part in there. After the HREF you put in quotes the URL of the page you are going to. For example, I first had to make a page on my site titled DivisionSites.html...then that target=right thing is because I have a site with frames, and that has that link open in the right side of the page. You won't need that, if you don't have a site with frames. Then I put what people will click on to go to that URL. I put The Division Sites, and the B, I, FONT, and FONT FACE are all bold, italic, and what type of font I want that to appear in.

I suppose your basic looks like this:

<A HREF="your page's URL" <FONT FACE="whatever font you want your title" SIZE=pick a number COLOR="pick a color">title for link</FONT></A><FONT COLOR="same color as B4"></P>

Just keep experimenting with it, you'll get the hang of it... ;)

I'd also recommend just making a site or page on Word like I do usually. Then all ya hafta do is go to View HTML and copy and paste the code for the page you've made.

well, frames is kinda hard, but once ya get the hang of it, it's easy...OK, first what you're gonna hafta do is make two separate pages... "right.html" and "left.html" Put in what ya want on each... (for instance usually your left side is like the site guide/menu then the right side has the title of your site with maybe a pic and about your site or whatever...)

Then use this code on your index.html page or whatever you call your homepage:

<FRAMESET COLS="18%,*" FRAMEBORDER="0" FRAMESPACING="0" BORDER="0">
<FRAME NAME="left" SRC="left.html" MARGINWIDTH="3" MARGINHEIGHT="10" SCROLLING="yes">
<FRAME NAME="right" SRC="right.html" MARGINWIDTH="3" MARGINHEIGHT="10">

Then on all the sections of your site which'll be on the left page you wnat them to open up in the right side so you hafta put target=right in there...

If ya still have question I'll try to help ya, IM me anytime on TypoQueen85, and hopefully we can get it working! Great job on the site so far BTW! :)
