raz -> Web Address (12/29/2001 21:33:27)

Hi there!

Time came for me to ask another question. My site at www.harfaevangheliei.org keeps the same address even if you click on any any of my links .... I should like each page to have a different adrdress as in www.harfaevangheliei.org/SOMETHING

Thanks in advance!





EWD -> RE: Web Address (12/29/2001 23:09:12)

That happens because you use frames. The only way I know to have the page names show up is to lose the frames.

 




bpestilence -> RE: Web Address (12/30/2001 10:48:18)

Yep. When using frames, the page that actually comes up is the frame, and the page displayed within the frame is simply acting on a <A target > command. You can work it the other way around, though. Delete your frames (Just turn them off), and then put them back as "include pages". That way, your page will have the frames IN IT, vs having your page IN the frames. See?

Thanks for the response .... but I didn't understand how to fix the problem. I read most of the tutorial on frames but my answer didn't show up. How do I turn the frames off?Where do I go to "include pages"?
Help me "see".
Thanks

You can take the contents (file) of each frame and place each one as an "include page" into each of the pages that you want them on.

For instance, let's say you have a header frame (header.html), a navigation frame (navigation.html), a main content area frame, and a footer frame (footer.html).

Create a new page with a table that mimics the appearance of your page with frames ... a header row with a cell that spans 2 columns, the next row would have a navigation cell maybe 160 pixels wide and the main content cell, then a row with the footer that spans 2 columns.

Where you want the header to appear, place your cursor inside the header cell and from the top menu choose Insert | Component | Include Page. Browse to the file that contains the header info. Do this for each file that you want "included". This way, if you make a change to the header or navigation, etc., it will be reflected in every page that contains these "include pages".

Hmmmm, does that make sense?

FRom what I understand you're telling me how to make my site mimic the frames but not using them ... I want to use them .... i know it's possible because I know other sites like that.
So back to the initial question how do I make my site have a different address for each page keeping the frames?
Thanks!

If you can show us a site that does this, we'd be happy to take a look and see how they did it.

I am truly sorry!
I did not realize the site I was having in mind as example has the same problem I do.
Now i'm tryng to fallow the directions above ... Only I would have a to replace two frames (the left frame and the main frame - the banner is just inserted as a picture, not as a frame). For the first time i begun to use tables .... Once I created the left table replacing the old frame (I made the borders invisible). I redid the first page and it looks ok only there's some extra space at the bottom that I don't need. I'll keep changing all pages than I'll publush and ask again for advice.
Thanks so far!
