I am helping this professor on updating somethings on his website and I am having trouble with links. Everytime I connect the links and upload the files on the server. The links are not updated or something.

this is the code

<tr>
<td height="27" align="left" valign="bottom" background="../rationale.htm" class="nav" id="rationale">
<a accesskey="A" href="file:///Untitled/Users/tnorbu/Desktop/untitled%20folder/pages/rationale.htm" onMouseOver="navRollOver('rationale', 'on')" onMouseOut="navRollOver('rationale', 'off')">
Rationale</a> </td>
</tr>

What should i do? Urgent help

Your problem is in bold there. It's pointing to a local file.

I'll give a shot at fixing it, but it's simply a guess based on other links in the code you posted.
<tr>
<td height="27" align="left" valign="bottom" background="../rationale.htm" class="nav" id="rationale">
<a accesskey="A" href="../rationale.htm" onMouseOver="navRollOver('rationale', 'on')" onMouseOut="navRollOver('rationale', 'off')">
Rationale</a> </td>
</tr>

so... having a href="../rationale.htm changes the whole thing
great!!
