Those represent spaces in you file and folder names.
<a href="News%20and%20Updates.htm"> should be
<a href="NewsandUpdates.htm"> or <a href="News-and-Updates.htm">
Or: <a href="News_and_Updates.htm">
Be sure your photo's name don't have spaces either.

Try changing the code to:
<a herf="news_and_updates.htm>Schedule of Events</a><br>

The hard code needs to be all lower case letters with no spaces.

Tom,

Why do you say it needs to be lowercase?

Thanks, Gene

Although Windows based servers ignore the case, the same is NOT true for
Linux based servers.

Index.html, INDEX.HTML and index.html are all the same in Windows but
all separate files in Linux.

So best practice is to use all lower case, to ensure there will not be
problems.

Hi Paul,

That is very helpful; thanks very much.
