You don't, there are just too many.

There are about 40/50 pages that need linking to. These break down quite easily into 5 or 6 'sections', e.g. News, Reports, Team Stats, Player Stats, Records and History. The rest of the 3000+ pages are player pages and team pages, which will be linked to by other ootp pages, within the frame/******, not by you (see below).

So you can make separate pages or frames for each of these headings. Each of these 6 pages will have links to 7 or 8 pages - which must be loaded in a frame or ******. Loading them into a frame preserves your header/menu and just loads the ootp data-page. You can change the look of the ootp page by playing around with styles.css.


What I did (also in Frontpage):

Index.html is just a frameset page. Loads 2 pages into the frames (top:site name/logo and 2 horizontal menu's; and content area). The menu's: one for external links, one for the ootp 'sections'.

The 'content' area:

Need 5 or 6 different webpages (one for each section). The top of the content area then displays another small horizontal menu linking to the 7 or 8 pages under that section (e.g. for News; Breaking, Log, Transactions, Injuries etc).

The actual ootp page (e.g. lnews.html for News Log) is loaded into an ****** in the contents page immediately below the menu bar.

The crucial bit is the "target" attribute of the A tag. e.g. call your ****** "contentIF", then the A tag as well as the href attribute also has ' target="contentIF" '. So clicking any of the menu links should target the ******. Any link clicked within the ****** (e.g. player name) will automatically open within the ******.
