cmgweb Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 In your structure you have style.css in the path you have screen.css. Seems like a silly question but are you using the correct file name? if all else fails use Dreamweaver to link it.

mikhl Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Is the forums and assets directories in the same directory. I know it's a silly question, but I thought it worth checking.

mikhl Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I cannot think of anything that would fix it, if your href pointer is correct. If all else fails use the URL. To make sure of things I like to start at the HTML file and manually navigate to the CSS file in the window. This will verify the file path for you. You could also try navigating to the CSS file from the forums directory using the command line. This will show you the exact file path to use. Hope this gets resolved Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/265903-how-to-link-html-pages-in-different-folders/#findComment-1362661 Share on other sites More sharing options...

worrall Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Its so simple whenever you write the <a href line the editor automatically give you an browse option and through that you can give the path of the file.

Christian F. Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 use Dreamweaver for some good examples No, just no. Not only is this bad advice, as I've yet to see any good code produced by WYSIWYG-editors, but it has nothing to do with the question the OP asked.

Christian F. Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Still not good advice, I'm afraid. For something that basic, I'd go with a HTML tutorial. Or even the HTML spec from W3.org, if you really want all of the details on anchors.
