Not quite sure what your asking.

You mean how can you do say:

www.domain.com/blah/blah.htm versus www.domain.com/blah.htm?

You just create folder in your websites root directory and put the file(s) inside of it.

No not as such

what i want to make a forward slash http link such as http://mydomain.com/linkspage so you can give that out etc to diffrent parts of your site you can even have a diffrent website about somethink else with http://mydomain.com/webname if you go to the itv website it works here like http://itv.com/news thats what i am trying to do.

can anyone help please thanks very much :)

It's just a folder called news in your root directory. Nothing fancy, no scripting needed or anything. Create a folder and upload files into that folder and you'll be able to go http://www.yourdomain.com/foldername

A new folder works just like your root directory too. In other words, you will need a file called index.html in the new folder in order for the link http://domain.com/newfolder to work.
