Navigation bar issues

[JonP]

I have set up my initial site www.pctvinyl.com and it works perfectly (much
due to your help, and I thank you) However, I have also set up a forward
domain (www.pctvinylcorp.com) and it redirects the user to the main site.
The problem I am having is that the navigation bar on the left hand side of
each page (Home, about us, contact us etc) does NOT work. When I compare the
paths the user is sent to (by hovering over the links on the bar), the
forward sites path go via index_files, whereas the main site goes direct to
an .htm path.
Is this a common issue? I really home there is an easy answer...
Thanks for the contunued help.

You are not "redirecting" the second domain to the first, you are "framing"
the first domain. The framing breaks the linkage. Use a redirect instead of
framing.

thanks for the reply.

Can I ask what is Framing? And how can I change it to a redirect (I ask
because I was under the assumption that I was redirecting).

In your browser go to View, Source.
You can see the framing code. To learn about framing and any other html
topic I suggest using http://www.htmlgoodies.com .

The code for a redirect looks like this -
