Add a Link Between Your Two Pages
The final step in this part of the lab will be to make a link from
your home page to the CS 105 assignments page you just created.
At this point, I'll give you less detailed instructions since you
should be getting the hang of this.
- Add a new paragraph to your home page explaining that you
are a CS 105 student. Make sure to mention that you do lab
assignments for the course so that you can turn this "mention"
into a link later. Include a header to separate this new
paragraph from the earlier part of your page. Use a heading
tag other than <H1> since this isn't the main heading.
- Select the "mention" you would like to turn into a link using
the mouse.
- Press the link button in the PageSpinner tool bar.
- Rather than entering the URL, click on the folder-like icon
to the right of the box where you are asked to enter a URL.
A file browing dialog box should appear.
- Using this dialog box, find your "cs105labs.html" file
and then click "OPEN"
- Click "Apply".
- Examine the <A HREF= ...> produced this time. Note that
the HREF attribute included in the link does not start with
"http://". Instead, the HREF value only contains the name
of the file because it is a relative link.
- Save your work and examine your home page using Netscape. Try
the new link.
