Hi…I’m unable to link next html page with home page(which is placed in htdocs/CA_Website directory) because I’m unable to view url of the same page. How to link that ?
My website url is " http://currentaffairsforcivilservices.epizy.com "
Snapshot is attached–fig.1, fig.2 and fig.3
I’m trying to open in Chrome.
Please assist me.!
Use this a tag to embed the page into a link:
<a href="./CA_Website/All-Years.html"><b>Start Current Affairs </b></a>
and embed it in a button with classes button and button4.
ok thanks…the page started showing on the link.
But, image above on page (placed in folder CA_Website with name CACS_Logo_Strip.png) not showing and link for next page (placed in folder CA_Website with name) also not working ?
Link is here http://currentaffairsforcivilservices.epizy.com/CA_Website/All-Years.html
There are many ways to create URLs to the same page, although they works slightly different depending on which URL format you use.
@Ergastolator1 used a form of relative URLs, where the final URL depends on which page you are trying to load the URL from. However, since the All-Years.html page is already in the CA_Website, and you take the relative URL ./CA_Website/CACS_Logo_Strip.png from this folder, it will direct your browser to load the image at:
http://currentaffairsforcivilservices.epizy.com/CA_Website/CA_Website/CACS_Logo_Strip.png
Obviously, this is not correct.
My personal preference is usually to use URLs which are relative to the root of the domain. So instead of using ./CA_Website/CACS_Logo_Strip.png, I use /CA_Website/CACS_Logo_Strip.png, which becomes http://currentaffairsforcivilservices.epizy.com/CA_Website/CACS_Logo_Strip.png regardless of where you are on your website.

Thank you for your response.
Next problem is occurring…
On web portal when I put pointer on July (Button), it shows linked as " /CA_Website/July_19/July_2019 " which is wrong.
!
But in editor window coding link is different
!
which is actually right one !!
So, in short I’m unable to edit the link on web page through editor window (html file uploaded in ftp). What should I do ?
The problem with the July_19 folder is exactly the same one as you had with the image: if you start the URL with no slashes or dots, the URL will be parsed as being relative to the current directory.
Please read the link I sent to you before and try to understand what it means. Once you understand what the different ways to write a URL are and what they do, it becomes quite easy to understand why your URLs don’t do what you expect them to do.
