I hope you study coothead's example well. I ran your code through the W3 validator myself. It reported so many errors that it stopped after around 20 errors. The HTML you pointed to is not even valid HTML. You have placed the footer and script tags after the closing /html tag. And you can't have spaces in file name in an href attribute. The space must be converted to %20
