I'm having problems with my Websites, if anyone can help me. On one of them, only the index page will display and none of the other page links work. Does anyone know what I can do to get the links to my other pages to work?

Another question. I can't get my other Website to transfer at all. Well, it transfers, but an http 403 error displays on the page. I changed my homepage to index.htm, as suggested, but I still get the error. Should all my pages have a consistent extension? The index page is .htm and the rest are html. Any help would be much appreciated. :)

For the first problem, do you have a link that we can look at to see if we can actualy see whats wrong.

There's no need for consistent file extension, I use a terrible mess of .php .html and .htm, if you're getting a 403 then you ought to check your server configuration.

Okay, it's kind of embarrassing because I'm new to HTML. I'm doing it for a class, so I need everything to work well. Thanks for any help you can give me.

All the links on that page are absolute, pointing at files in a specific location on your hard drive (since they start with file://). You need to use relative links, i.e. without the path to the files. For example, to link to your "About Me" page, link to "About_Me.html" rather than "file:///C:/Documents and Settings/Terriel/My Documents/CSC130 Website/html/About_Me.html".
