    Hi. I am totally new to web design. I do everything in frontpage and don't really know much html programming.
    I have downloaded a free template off your site and am busy playing around with it. When I create a new page, how do I apply the buttons and theme to show on it and other new pages? I'm sure it has something to do with the CSS file but I don't know how to apply it.

    Please help.

    All you have to do it copy the page, rename it and replace the content with the real content (your content). Need another new page? Copy the page again rename it and you have a new page.

    The same style is applied to all pages by having this code in the head tag

    Code:
     <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
    This tells the browser how to style the page. You can try and open the style.css and look for yourself how the page has been styled you will see all kinds of color and measurements code in this file.
    What's great about this is that if you change something in this file for example the color of your text, the color will change on all pages.


    Want to learn more about CSS and HTML?
    I made a post "Learn more about HTML" with great websites to learn HTML.
    And a post for CSS Tutorials websites.

    You don't need to know much about if you use templates just the basic stuff.
