im making a site for my mom with nature pictures and crap and i finally figured out the whole thumbnail thing, i made the gallerys and now all i have to do is link from the main page to the gallery. the problem that im having is that i cant make a proper link. it keeps wanting to automatically go to www.angelfire.lycos.com/yadayada when i only want it to go to www.anglefire.com/yadayada.

heres the code that im trying to use


<a href="www.angelfire.com/oz/natures_gallery/gallery1.html">Gallery 1</a>

and it wants to link to "www.anglefire.lycos.com/www.angelfire.com/oz/natures_gallery/gallery1.htm"

and that obviously wont work.... :WTF:

help :unsure:

what about just "oz/natures_gallery/gallery1.html"?

or throw the http:// at the beginning of the url

ok, i got it working. you were right Jim i did have to take off that first part, there was another problem though, were i put "gallery1" it should have been "Gallery1"
i didnt think it was case sensitive.
thanks for the help :drink:
