OK, so I'm making a newsletter for my site. I want to create a link on the site itself that says View Newsletter. That should take you to a page that lists the different issues that are out so that you can choose which issue you haven't read yet and you can view that issue. All right, here's what I don't get: how do I make the link on the page itself? The problem is the person that's doing the site won't tell me how to do stuff so I'm pretty much learning as I go. Confused So I want to create a button that goes to the newsletter page displaying the issues. How do I know what page title the issue is going to be? like you say <a href = "www.djlakj.com" View Newsletter> or something like that but how do I know what www to write when it doesn't exist yet? Please help and post more if I'm confusing.

I am not sure if I understand your question correctly, but i'll give it a shot.

You are attempting to create a "Vew News Letter" link, that goes to a page that shows all the news letters.

You then click the title of that news letter to view it, but do not know the URL to the individual news letters?

I would suggest, View the news letter yourself, and whatever appears in the "address" bar in your browser, copy that and insert it into your link code.

If they have it setup where the address bar is removed, right-click on the link, and hit "Open in new window".

again, I am a bit uncertian as to what it is you need, so if I misunderstood you, please forgive me.

Also, providing a link to the site in question would be helpful.

ok. www.thekissingbooth.us

See the links with all of our names to the left? I want to create a button that'll have view newsletter but I am uncertain as to how to do it. I know how to create the button itself, but I don't know how to make it appear on the site as a clickable link.

You understood me correctly, but I still don't really...get it. So I have the newsletter as a .doc file. To make it appear on the site I need to do...what?

to make an image button a clickable link, insert the image code in place of the link's text.

Example:
Code:

<a href="NewsLetter.doc"><img src="NewsLetterButton.jpg" border="0"></a>


because word documents can be opened in IE. so just link the word doc as another page.
