OK, you all seem really, really smart about this and I feel...new and dumb :rolleyes:. So, here is my current problem. How do I create a link to a Word or pdf file?

I uploaded the files to unlimited ftp in the public folder. They are listed there as a .doc or.pdf.

I use PageBreeze. I know how to insert link to another page but I cannot figure out how to link to the document.

Help!

P.S. While I know next to nothing about web design this is really addicting!!

You link to it the same way you would for a web page.

For example, say you have a file called 123.pdf in the 'files' directory on your web space http://www.yourdomain.com. The path to the PDF would look something like this: http://www.yourdomain.com/files/123.pdf. As a result, the HTML for this link will be...


<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/files/123.pdf">123.pdf</a>

The same goes for files like .doc, etc.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! You are my hero!! I didn't expect it to be a difficult task but for as many hours as I have been trying to figure it out on my own you would think it was rocket science.
