Bookmarks are a useful internal tool; they act like
external hyperlinks, but they take you to a place within the Web itself, not to
an external site.
To insert a bookmark, go to Insert > Bookmark.
In the window, type in a name for the bookmark (such as "top"). Here
is a bookmark called "Bookmark": [
]. (You can't see it on the Web, but it's there, nestled between the
brackets.)
 | To link to this bookmark, insert a hyperlink in
the desired location by inserting your text or graphic, highlighting it (if
it is text), right-clicking on it, and clicking on Hyperlink. |
|
In the Hyperlink
window, you will see Optional and, below that, Bookmark.
In the drop-down menu, select the name of the bookmark and click OK. |
|
Hyperlinked text will show up in blue (or the
color specified in any theme you may have applied) with an underline. You
may change the color of the text by highlighting it and clicking the text
color tool. |
|
Hyperlinked graphics won't look any different
until you to go Preview mode. There, you will see the hand icon appear when
you hover over the linked graphic. To test your bookmark, click on the link
to see if it moves you to the spot where you inserted the bookmark. Try this
one: Go to Bookmark. If all is well, the spot where
I inserted the bookmark should now be at the very top of the browser window. |

|
Hyperlinks to external Internet sources give
you the ability to take a user quickly to another Web address, or url.
Having hyperlinks makes your Web site more dynamic and user friendly. You can
also create internal hyperlinks to pages within your own Web. To
create a hyperlink from a line of text:
|
Highlight the text. |
|
Right click on it and click Hyperlink
in the popup menu, or click Ctrl+K. |
|
FrontPage takes you
directly to the URL spot
in the window, where you can type in the external document's Web
address. |
|
To link to a page within
your own Web, either locate it in the list in the window, or, if it does not
appear there, click on the file search button
that says "make a hyperlink to a file on your computer." |
|
To link to a person's
e-mail address, click on the e-mail hyperlink
button (it looks like a little envelope), or
click inside the URL form, erase "http://", and type
"mailto:" followed by the e-mail address, including the
"@" symbol and the domain. |
|
Alternatively, you can
simply type the URL or e-mail address, and FrontPage will automatically turn
them into hyperlinks. Here is an example: mailto:hmwells@cc.ysu.edu. |
