A typical Web site permits jumping from the top page to subpages, which is referred to as linking. Homepage Builder enables you to view the link hierarchy. You must register your Web pages as a site, however.

Tip Tip Details about a site are explained in Chapter 4.

  2. Select Create a Site, and enter any site name.

  8. Click the Next button without any specification, because you can specify the destination server later.

  9. On the next dialog box, Operation after Setting Completion, select Open the Site after Closing Settings and click the Finish button. The "Do you want to close all open documents?" message appears.

  10. Click the No button. The wizard ends and the link hierarchy appears on the right side of the main window:

    Link tab

    Can you see the link hierarchy of your Web site? If you created a Web site using one of templates, the Web site makes the following hierarchy:

    top page
    index.htm (top page)
    arrow
    subpage 1
    sub1.htm (subpage 1)
    subpage 2
    sub2.htm (subpage 2)
    subpage 3
    sub3.htm (subpage 3)

You have now created your Web pages as a site. You can check the link hierarchy or file organization at any time. Continue to the next page to view your Web site on a Web browser.
