Links
This is the link editor button: |
![]() |
In the link editor window, you can set all the properties
of your link. In the "Link Location" text box, you will enter
the target of your link. i.e. if you wanted to link to Thetford Academy
you would enter HTTP://ta.thet.net in the "Link Location". In
this instance, the HTTP is needed to tell the browser to look out on the
internet for the file. If you leave off HTTP the web browser will assume
it is looking for a file in the same place as your web page(i.e. you are
linking to another page you created). |
|
| You can make a graphic (picture) a link,
too, by clicking on the picture and then clicking on the link editor button. |
|
Anchors
| There is more to the link editor than
just links to the outside. You can make links to within the page you are
looking at, or another page you are working on. |
|
| To make a local (within your files) link, you need to make
an ANCHOR. To do that, go to the place in your file where you want the link
to go, and then click on the anchor button: |
![]() |
| Give it a name. In this example, the anchor is named "heading5". When
you create an anchor, you will get the anchor icon |
|
Now you can make a link to that anchor. Find some text in your file that you want to lead to the spot where you put the anchor. Highlight the text, and click the link button. Now either type in the nameof your anchor, preceded by the pound (#) sign, or choose your anchor from the drop down menu, as shown here. |
