Creating links



User: cecile 12 years ago
Hi,
I would like to create a link inside a page, for example at the bottom of the page I want to create a link to the top of it.
Or a link from a page to another one but for example at the middle of the page where there is a specific image.

This is achieved using anchors and targets. These can be within a page or between pages of the same site - or any other site that you have access to the code.

This page shows examples of both jerky, jumping standard anchors and jQuery smooth scrolling anchors.

The link on the same page works, but I need to change the specifications of the word "TOP" on my page (font, size, colors of the link : normal, rollover ...), I don't know how to that.
For the link from a page to another one, on a specific place, I placed an html snippet on the first page : <a href="drawings.html#external"></a>
and a target on the page "drawings" like that : <a id="external"></a>
I try to change the name of this page in the inspector : in the file name area : doesn't work, it doesn't accept the sign . and #

You don't change the name of the page to have a # sign in it. It shouldn't be changed at all.

The code in the html snippet should be;

<a name="external"></a>

You used id instead of name.

You don't change the page name in the left column of EasyWeb - you just enter it into this line...

<a href="drawings.html#external"></a>

To create a back to the top link all you need to do is place a text box at the bottom of the page with whatever text you want in it.
Format the text as usual with size, color, font etc.
Highlight the text and then open the link inspector.
Select "Enable as Hyperlink"
Link to: An External Page
Put the hash sign in the URL box
Format the hyperlink

"You don't change the page name in the left column of EasyWeb - you just enter it into this line...

Where do I enter this line? In an Html snipped on my page? or in the inspector?

I tried to place an Html snippet on the first page with
a href="drawings.html#external"></a>
on the drawings page
<a name="external"></a>
It doesn't work

The back link to the top of the page is on the same page, so I can't link it to an external page?

You need to put some link text in this code - or wrap the anchor around an image tag....

<a href="drawings.html#external">Go To Drawings Page</a>

The back to the top link needs to be created as a link to an external page but, instead of using page-name.html you are using # which tells the browser to jump to the top of the same page.

Hi again,
I past the link text in the Html snippet of the image like that :

<a href="drawings.html#external"><img src={!-ASSETSPATH-!}Images/drawing-meadow-ljung.jpg style="height:666px;width:500px;border:none" alt="drawing-ink-meadow-original-art" title="drawing of a meadow by Ljung" />

and the target html for my image in my drawings page
It is working fine! Thanks

For Next and previous page links I use these characters ☚ ☛ For my back link to the top, I need it vertical, it doesn't exist,
so I create a block text and rotate it 90° and format the link, it is ok in Everweb but in the navigateur the ☛ is horizontal.
How can I fix that?

The text rotation won't work when exporting a site from EverWeb. We are working on it.
