    Good afternoon my friends. I have just started a new Website for my bowling club. My question is, I would like to have an archives page with at least 10 years previous pages eg;, 2000,2001,2002,2003 and so on. Can anyone please help with this problem, only thing is, I dont know much about PC's or its workings. If you could help, could you make it plain and simple.
    thanks in antisipation rabbi.

    The real short answer is to have a seperate page for each year....Or if the previous years information is say in a pdf file format you could have a link to each of the files.

    Do you already have the content for 2000, 2001, 2002 etc.? Can the content for each year fit on one page? If so, create a page for each archived year and name it 2000.html, 2001.html, 2002.html, etc. Then on your homepage make an archives menu. Example:

    <h3>Archives</h3>
    <p><a href= "2000.html ">2000</a><br />
    <a href= "2001.html ">2001</a><br />
    <a href= "2002.html ">2002</a><br />
    <a href= "2003.html ">2003</a><br />
    etc. </p>

    sorry no, I dont have anything as yet, that is why I'm asking, as I've said, I've just made this website for friends of a club, and would like to know how to put an archive page on.

    Well, you do it just the same way you make a current page, but you have to have stuff to put on the page(s).
