2. Links Links: One always links to an anchor point Every page has an implicit anchor point at the start In addition, can add anchor points to the middle of the page by using Insert->Named anchor point If text is highlighted, it will default to that text OR you can use a name of your choosing To point to an anchor point you need to know The page The point in the page linkpoint

3. Identifying links: page Absolute address (remote external) Full url: http://...

4. HTML Internal Links Internal points are called anchors To create an anchor point To move to an anchor point Link text What differences do you observe? Two items Anchor is a point, not a piece of text Anchor points have a “#” pre-pended to the name

5. HTML Local Links Other pages that are always kept with the current one Not only the same machine, but the same folder All pages are automatically defined as access points Connect with the same access tag Link text
