Thread: hyperlink problems

I have been working like crazy to get my website published www.difesacanecorso.com it is an add-on. I am trying to link my pages together. I never had problems with my other site, but I can't get this one to work. for example: if you go to www.difesacanecorso.com and click on 'the stud' the page works just fine. If you go to the next link, "the service" it wont work and I get a 404 error. I have quintuple checked my spelling, I only used lower case letters, I didn't use spaces. I even referred to some other forum posts that discussed leaving the folder option blank when publishing. I don't understand why some are working and some aren't. It may be helpful to know that the "contact" link is also not working and it has a form on it. I saved it as a php. I have tried renaming the pages so they are shorter and no luck. I recently posted about not being able to see my index page once published and I just changed the publishing folder to: public_html/difesacanecorso.com
I am afraid I am missing something obvious because I have been staring at the computer for 5 straight days! :)

Hi,

"The Service" link, for example, is searching for a file
called "service.html" and this is triggering a 404 because
it doesn't exist ... The file is called "theservice.html"
and if you visit the link below, you will see that it will
load... Check it out:

http://www.difesacanecorso.com/theservice.html

Please check your links ;)

Ok, so I look like a moron. I changed the names of the pages and removed the "the" because I was having problems and thought the 'the's were makeig it upset (I don't know why). Check out my link from www.difesacanecorso.com for "the Breed" it's doing the same think. And, please, feel free to make me look dumb if it makes my website work! :)

1) http://www.difesacanecorso.com/thebreed.html loads fine ... I guess you fixed it?
2) No need to call yourself a moron, VodaHost is all about learning, we all have to start somewhere...

Yes, I did fix it! I was scouring the forum for similar posts and found one discussing php's for forms, so I checked and all the pages that didn't work were all published as php's and they didn't have forms so, I changed them to html and published them again and have no problems.... except for the one with the form. I tried to load the contact page and it wont work. I published it as a php and it comes up as a 404 error www.difesacanecorso.com/contact.html when that didn't work, I published it as an html. That at least made it where something came up. However, there was all this typing on the back ground like html code or something. So, I went into my cpanel and deleted the contact loaded as an html. Now, I am stuck at square 1, no contact page. Any suggestions?

Any page with a form on it must be published as a php--BV will do that automatically. Php allows the form to communicate with you. Html does not. Once the contact page is published, you simply need to write your links like this: http://www.difesacanecorso.com/contact.php

Perfect, thanks!!
