Page Name: Choose a name for you page.This is the name that will show on the navigation bar on each page. File name: This is the html file name of this page. Usually the recommended file name works best. The name should end with .html Parent Page: Usually No Parent Page works best if you just have a few pages. The links to these pages will appear on each page. However, if for example you had a an existing page called "Pizza" and the page that you are currently creating is called "Pepperoni", you could choose the parent page to be "Pizza". That way, when a visitor moused over the "Pizza" link on your home page, a dropdown box showing "Pepperoni" would also appear. |
