I am very new at this and need some help. I am building my first website. I have started this text and pictures. That was pretty easy. Then I wanted a column of (what i would call) buttons that would take the viewer to another page concerning the topic of that button. Like a page 2 of my site.

I have used table designer and made the list of buttons, now how do I link them so that I can started building that page?

I hope that I have used the correct terms !!!

Maybe using a table is not what I'm wanting to do?

at www.midwayrental.com at the left side is Home, Rental & services.
This is what I am trying to do. My viewer would click on rental to see a list of equipmnet that I offer.
How do I do this?

Stacy,

There are several ways, but specific instructions will be different depending on the program you are using to write the code for your site.

Just generally speaking, you could create a menu using the CoffeeCup Flash Menu Builder, the CoffeeCup DHTML Menu Builder, or you could use an unordered list. The list code would look something like:
<ul>
<li><a href="equipment.html">Equipment</a></li>
<li><a href="supplies.html">Supplies</a></li>
<li><a href="instructions.html">Instruction Sheets</a></li>
</ul>

Each of those links would appear in a vertical list and link to pages with more information.

Let us know if you need something more specific.

Bill, A menu sounds like what I am wanting. I am not writing code i am using the visual editor.
I am not finding in the tools anything about menus. Where do I start?

Thanks for your help

Stacy,

Are you using the HTML Editor visual editor, or are you using Visual SIte Designer?

If you are using the HTML Editor, it has a built in DHTML menu builder.

If you are using the VSD program, you can download the CoffeeCup Free DHTML Menu Builder or you can purchase the CoffeeCup Flash menu builder.

If you are using VSD, you can create links to your other pages, and VSD does have a link tool. You could use the image of a house and create a link so that someone clicking on the house would go to your home page.

There are so many options, just let us know what program you have (click on help about) and how you want it to look.
