Newbie's Problem With Hyperinks

[Phylis]

Hi

I am new to IIS and would be grateful for any assistance.

I am trying to set up an intranet but I am having problems with the links –

I have got a default page working and all domain users can access this using internet explorer e.g.

http://servername.

the problem is the links to other internal WebPages don’t work, but links to .PDF and .DOC files do.

If I access the default page through the

http://www.root

folder all of the links work!?, but again if I (administrator) try to access the site through internet explorer they don’t.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you get an error when you try to click on the link to the other internal pages? If so, what is it? Are the links to other machines on your network?

many thanks for the reply

the error message i get is - http 404 file not found.

All of the links point to pages stored in the

http://www.root

folder on the same server. - it is only links to html files in that folder that this error appears.

the links to any pdf or word files dont have any errors and just open as usual.

like i said the all links work fine if i open them through the default page in the

http://www.root

folder

ty.

Try using this syntax on your hyperlinks. filename.html

Do not use any Http or www. just the filename and ext

Ok to try and do this how is the hyperlink listed. Is it hardcoded with a full path if so try and put in the link like this instead

./FILENAME

OR

../FILENAME

if you need to transerse through directories

try this link for hyperlinks
