You are better off than you give yourself credit for. Some of your links work perfectly. Go look at the properties of the ones that do work and you will see that the filename extension ends with .html. Make sure all of your other links have that same extension and you'll be back in business in no time.

Still no good all have. They all have the same extesions /whatpage.html after the website address.
It either shows webpage unavailable or Error Page.

From your Home page, Clients Letters doesn't work because you have the link reading:
http://www.eventdiscos.co.uk/client_letters.html
instead of:
http://www.eventdiscos.co.uk/clients_letters.html
Other Entertainment works, but I believe that is all.
The links look like they should be good. Are you sure you have saved and published the other pages?
Did you save and publish:
Quote page = quote
Questions page = questions
Venues & Clients = venues_and_clients
Contact Us = contact_us
Terms and Conditions = terms_and_conditions
notice all lower-case letters, no spaces, nothing else added such as '.html' when saving/publishing.
The info above reflects your links but it's not finding your pages.

I found your Quote page: it's named 'Quote"
save it as 'quote' and republish and it should work.

I don't know what you mean by 'delete the page properties' but redoing the pages won't help. A link to a page is simply a 'road map' giving directions to a page. but it has to be exact! 'Quote' is not the same as 'quote'.
Did you name the pages as in the above? Open each of the pages in BV and tell us what is written at the very top in the blue bar - this is the name of the page.
After verifying the names, did you save the pages? Did you publish the pages with the new names? Do you have more than one website? If so, are you publishing them to the correct site?

Hi Eddie
You have of load of mistakes in your link addresses. chec them out by going to the web page and putting the mouse over the link to see the address
Also a page stops open every time you click on it , try using self in the properties box then it willonly open one page at a time

Thanks all you guys problem solved.
Can you help me with this now.

When clicking on navigation bars the pages only open in a small window.
How do you change this so as to open up full size on clicking.

Thanks

They open in a full size window for me. You may have your browser settings to open in a smaller window.
In you link properties window the "Target" setting should be left empty.
Many of your pages have no title (not name). This is very important for SE's.
