FrontPage allows the user to create links from anywhere
on a web page to anywhere on a web page. This
is very useful if you have a list indicating the subsections
on that page, at the beginning of a web page. It is useful
if it is a long page, so that the user can jump right to the
section they require. In FrontPage these destination
places on a page that you have marked for linking, are called
bookmarks.
The example chosen for this tip sheet is
from a web page where there was a list of subsections, at
the beginning of the page. The section Make up of
final year mark did not have a hyperlink. It was
most important that users note that section. A bookmarked
hyperlink had to be made.
To create a bookmarked hyperlink
Select the text which is the destination
of the bookmark or hyperlink.
Select the text and click Insert
on the menu bar, then Bookmark. The Bookmark
dialogue box which opens contains all the bookmarks previously
made on that page. Click OK for the new bookmark.
The text which was marked is now underlined
with dashed lines indicating that it was marked.
Next select the text to be hyperlinked so
it can be linked to its destination or bookmark.
Select the text and click on the Hyperlink
icon on the menu bar.
A Create Hyperlink box opens.
Click on the small arrow pointing downwards
to open the Bookmark box. Select the required
Bookmark and press OK.
The hyperlink becomes blue with a line underneath
it. On the World Wide Web words that are underlined
in blue and images with a blue border, are usually hypertext
links. If you click on them you activate the hyperlink.
