designing the web site, to group all the boxes with holiday snapshots on one table, and all the boxes with photographs of pets on another. If a visitor wants to look at holiday snapshots he goes to the table with holiday snapshots, whereas if he wants to look at photographs of your pets, he goes to the table with pet snapshots. In a way, the index page of your web site is the room in which the tables are kept, and the child +Pages+ are the tables on which boxes are kept of different holidays, or different pets, or whatever.

Say we go to the table with holiday snapshots; there are lots of large boxes on the table. These boxes, each with snapshots of a particular holiday, could best be represented on the web site by what might be called grandchild +Pages+. And that is exactly what we're going to do, that is, we're going to make grandchild +Pages+. We go about it as follows.

On what used to be Page1 but is now called P_Home we add four, or five, or however many we need, new +Links+. We do this by making P_Home the active page, then selecting the {Label} icon and then selecting anywhere in the P_Home page. We repeat this to make all the +Links+ for all the +Pages+ we are going to create. The labels on these +Links+ can be changed (use [Alt] and select the link label to open the =Text Editing Square=) to labels such as Garden, Front porch, Kitchen, Living room etc. They don't link to anything as yet, that'll come in a minute, when we've constructed a few grandchild +Pages+.

To construct a grandchild +Page+, make the child +Page+ the active +Page+, select the {Page Control} icon and then select any spot on P_Home (but NOT on the yellow of the index +Page+). The square with the dashed edge and a {Page Control} icon appears; we expand the new grandchild +Page+ to fill most of the child +Page+ but not cover the list of +Links+ to other grandchild +Pages+. Now you can alter the name of the grandchild +Page+ (just as changed the name of the child +Page+) and then alter the label on the +Link+ which points to the new grandchild +Page+.

To keep track of all the different child and grandchild +Pages+, I suggest that for a small web site you give the child +Pages+ names such as P_Home, P_Fam, P_Pet etc. and the grandchild +Pages+ names such as P_Home_Live, P_Home_Kit while the great-grandchild +Pages+ are called P_Home_Live_01, P_Home_Live_02 etc. This is a fairly quick and easy system if you're making a web site as you go along, but gets cumbersome if you're constructing a somewhat bigger and more complcated web site.

In such a case, I advise using a more organised system, with child +Pages+ called P_01, P_02 etc., grandchild +Pages+ called P_01_01, P_01_02 etc and greatgrandchild +Pages+ called P_01_01_01 - well, you get the idea. This way you can see quickly how each +Page+ is related to any other +Page+ but you'll have to make a note (on a large sheet of paper) what each child, grandchild and greatgrandchild +Page+ is about.

In a similar way, each grandchild +Page+ can generate great-grandchild +Pages+. In theory we could keep this up for many generations, but I hope you remember that I suggested you keep your mouse clicks down to four and not more - well, if the move from index (or opening) page to the child +Page+ is one click, and the move from child to grandchild +Page+ is another click, then it takes three clicks to move from index to the great-grandchild +Page+ and the last click should get you to what you're looking for.on the great-great-grandchild +Page+.

If you're setting up a web site properly, you should have, at some stage or another, have constructed a hierarchy (room, table, large box, small box) so that each small box relates to a big box, each big box to a table, and the table stands in a room. It is a good idea to make a drawing on a very large sheet of paper, showing how each part relates to every other part - a bit like one of those diagrams which shows how people in a large office work with, over or under each other.

This is the beauty of the DFM2HTML program in that it almost automatically forces you to arrange your web site into a hierarchy of +Pages+, moving down from the general (photographs) to the detail (one street in Ibiza in autumn 2003). We haven't, so far, made any attempt to put in information or pretty pictures into the web pages, but at least we have organised the web site so that any visitor can find his or her way with just a few mouse clicks. That's my definition of a good web site.
