Example 1: html navigation bar

<!-- How to create a navigation bar:
 This is the html file:

 Put the class="active" in the html file/page you are coding in
 (e.g. put the class="active" in the Home.html file)
 To position a page link to the right do class="right"
-->
<body>
<ul class="topnav">
  <li><a class="active" href="Home.html">Home</a></li>
  <li><a href="Page1.html">Page1</a></li>
  <li><a href="Page2.html">Page2</a></li>
  <li class="right" ><a href="About.html">About</a></li>
</ul>
</body>
