Brianne,

Try posting your HTML so we can see where the error may be.

This might help though:

<a href="contact.html">Contact Page</a>
<a href="about.html">About Page</a>

Brianne,

Hopefully you solved the issue. In case you didn't, this may help: (assuming the portfolio page is the main page of site)

<a href="index.html">Portfolio Page</a>

In the previous reply I just posted code to cover the issues with the contact and about page links not working correctly.

If you want a link for the portfolio page in the same sequence of links, just add this code to the previous code like this:

<a href="index.html">Portfolio Page</a>
<a href="contact.html">Contact Page</a>
<a href="about.html">About Page</a>

Anyway, hope this helps.

PS. if you have the HOME page setup as portfolio.html, just swap out index.html with portfolio.html and you should be golden
