Who is it written for? [ править ]
Introduction [ править ]
One of the key features of documents on the web that they can have links to other web sites, making any one web page part of a large network which extends beyond the text on the screen — thus the term hypertext. Links are also used to navigate within a Web site and even within the same page.
There are two main options:-
- A link within the current site to another article or menu
- A link to a page on another website, that is to say an external website
A link to a menu within the current web site [ править ]
The menu and article details will vary from site to site and the detail depends on the editor used.
Using a simple editor You need to know the address of the menu or article that you want to link. The best way to do this is:-
- Open the menu/artilce you want to link to.
- Copy (Ctrl-c does this) the address in full from the top of the browser screen.
If you have sample data on a localhost web site, link something to the Menu ‘More about Joomla!
- Open an article for editing
- Highlight the words to appear as an underlined link in the finished page
- Click the «Insert/edit link» icon (a chain which became active when text is selected)
This opens a dialogue box
- Link URL:Paste the URL of the part of the website you want to link.
- Target: choose ‘Open link in a new window’
- Press Update
When the article is saved — check that the link works.
Another editor Some editors allow for choosing menus and articles within the current web site, as the illustration shows.
The initial process is the same:-
- Open an article for editing
- Highlight the words to appear as an underlined link in the finished page
- Click the «Insert/edit link» icon (a chain which became active when text is selected)
This opens a dialogue box. To choose the right menu:-
- Click the + next to Menu
- Click the + next to Main Menu
Find the menu that you want to link.
- Click the + next to that menu
This shows all the options below that menu item.
- Highlight the one you want to use
To open it in a new window (rather than in the same page):-
- Click Target — there is a list of choices.
- Choose Open in New Window
Finally — to insert the link —
- Click on the Insert button
A link to an external Web site [ править ]
You need to know the address of the page you want to link. The best way to do this is:-
- Open the page you want to link to.
- Copy (Ctrl-c does this) the address in full from the top of the browser screen
In your article:-
- Enter the text to be linked if it is not there already. (This is what appears as an underlined link in the finished page.)
- Highlight the text to be linked
- Click the «Insert/edit link» icon (a chain which becomes active when text is selected — in the bottom row of icons)
This opens the dialogue box
- Paste in the address of the destination page in the Link URL box (Ctrl-v)
To open in a new window (rather than in the same page) — this is often helpful for external sites:-
- Click Target — there is a list of choices.
- Choose Open in New Window
Finally — to insert the link —
- Click on the Insert button
