linking dreamweaver to an internet site

[hconnor2]

i'm an amateur, but in just a few days with dreamweaver i've got a decent site ready to go. trouble is, i can't seem to line to a simple site like www.amazon.com or www.anandtech.com

i typed in the link, but it places it under my local site so the browser does this:

www.mylocalsite.http//www.amazon.com

i've tried a couple of different things, but obviously im missing a piece here.

all help appreciated.

thanks

mike

Edit out the www.mylocalsite. Are familar with HTML editing at all? Can you put up the source code of the page in question, If its simple I can change it or some one smarter might be able to help you.

like i said, i'm an amateur, but i want to learn this stuff. i've done almost everything thus far using only drag and drop, no hard coding. i'll switch to the code window and see if i can do it there.

thanks much.
