Does anyone know how to link two documents together inside a single website using Webeasy 8?  My site is 70 pgs long and is giving me trouble, so I need to break it down.

Tina,

There are many ways you can link internally inside a website.  The simplest way is to link a text box.  To do this:

1.  Put a text box on the page you are linking from. 

2.  Enter the text you want to use as a link and exit the box.

3.  Click one time on the text box.

4.  in the tool bar at the top of the canvas you are working with, select the Link icon.

5.  A drop-down will appear and you can sellect how you want to link to the other page. (I like using "By Page Number"  Then click "OK" and your link is created.

6.  Repeat this on the page you have just linked to, otherwise you will get to that page and have no way to return to the main site.

At my website, http://www.website2easy.com , you can see where I used a word inside a "Rich Text" text box.  In the paragraph "Ask the right questions" I added [More] to the end of the paragraph.  Then I selected [More] and followed number 4 through 6 above.

I hope this helps.

Thanks JB, but that didn't quite address my issue.  I actually want to link my text to a different document, not a URL or any of the options available.

I created my website with Webeasy 8 w/o using templets.  I recall the software recommending to keep documents to a minimum of 5 pages for ease of management.   With 70 pgs, many of my images won't stay loaded when I switch pages to work on them, so I considered the problem to be one of memory.

I wonder if I create 4 documents for my one website package, then the images would stay loaded?  If so, how do I link the documents?  Perhaps I can't?

Tina,

The problem may be a "Reset" that is possitioned in the program to conserve memory.

What this does is simple, when you leave that document, the document is automatically sent back to the server allowing that space to be used by something else.

When you are editing your document, it may be doing similar by returning the document to it's file.  This would be to free up memory for other items.

You may be able to do something with scripting but I am not a scripter.  Arthur may be able to help.  He may know of an "ON-OFF" switch.

Best of Luck.  OH, and let us know how it turns out.

JB

Will do and Thanks!  What would us gals do without our geek guys, I ask you!

Wow!  I made it to "Geek" status!

Hey Tina,

I can not believe this slipped my mind.  I know you said that this problem was accuring during Editing your website off-line but does it happen when viewing on-line?

If it does then it could very well be a memory problem, as you susspect. 

Since you say your website is some 70 pages and your problem is with the images, this information is worth mentioning, even if you know this.

Check your Data memory for your site through your control panel.  If you do not have a panel as such, all providers to my knowledge supply them, call your Hosting Provider and ask them to check and tell you what your usage and left over memory is.  If your mrmory is getting low, say maybe 15% left, buy more memory NOW!

Most providers offer enough memory to take care of around 100 pages but that is primarily only TEXT.  Images and Photos, use up memory like a wild fire out of control.  Richard has a great article here at Soft City about Memory and Bandwidth.

That brings up another thing, Check your Bandwidth also.  Bust-Out Memory and Bandwidth are expensive, sometimes as much as 10 times the regular price.  If anyone is downloading things off your site, Bandwidth could be a serious problem.

I know this information does not help you with Editing problem but it could be something causing the sympthom Off-Line.

I do wish you luck,

JB

I said Richard may have writen a good article, it could have been Miguel.  I can not remember and I have not found it yet.

JB

Thanks JB!  I'll look into it and let you know how it turns out.

Hiya Folks.

Holy Crapola Batman!  I know I've seen some critiques that made me cringe and want to cry for the poor person who (had to be humiliated) was the recipient of the cruel words spoken.  

I'm truly glad you added that tidbit about a (cruel) critique being non-productive.  It does not matter WHO you are, if you cannot be KIND in some manner, you (anyone) should keep your blankety-blank-blank mouth shut!

;D  

Yes, some people should keep their mouth shut.  Critiquing is an art and should be handled with Kitt Gloves.  Some people just don't have the patients or think they are "GOD" when it comes to judging others.

To those of you that have been abused by a critique, my heart goes out to you.  Don't give up, most people are kind.

JB
