How to Use HTML With Your Ning Network
In addition to providing the HTML structure of pre-formatted pages, Ning also allows you to design your own HTML pages and host them through your Ning network. The HTML file can contain any mark-up that you want to include and can be linked to using the other pages on your network. Remember to change the links to the media content on the HTML page to correspond with your Ning directory before uploading the file to your network.
