Viewing No link icon showing on html snippet

No link icon showing on html snippet



User: pumpkin 12 years ago
I used the html snipped to add an image with a proper alt tag and all, and enabled it as a hyperlink. The snippet does not show the usual blue arrow to indicate it's a link.

I don't think that EasyWeb knows that it's link when you create it in a Snippet. You know it's a link because you used an anchor tag!

Nono, I used the hyperlinks pane in the inspector to enable the html snippet with the image in it as a hyperlink. Normal text boxes or shapes show this little blue arrow then to indicate it's enabled as a hyperlink. EasyWeb is not doing this with HTML snippets that are enabled as a hyperlink.

Code wise it wold be a lot more efficient to do this...

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.com"><img src="image.html" alt="My Image" height="300" width="400" /></a>

That is wrapping the img tag with an anchor tag.

Now that you have started to use HTML, keep going and you will soon be an ace!

Right, seems I have to add an anchor tag anyway since using the inspector to enable the html snippet as a link does not work at all ;)

Hm, did that with the result, that the image is not showing anymore. Not in EasyWeb and not when published.

You missed out the trailing quote in this part of the code...

<a href="http://www.singkehlchen.de/about.html">

You have it like this...

<a href="http://www.singkehlchen.de/about.html>

... which breaks the code.

Huh. Are we going to enter code for this though? Shouldn't it just work within the software as it did before?

Darian wanted to use an <img> tag in a Snippet to insert an image so that an alt tag could be added for SEO.

EasyWeb inserts images as the background to a div so there is no way to add alt or title tags.

The requirement was that the image should also be a hyperlink so the< img> tag is contained in an anchor tag to create the link.
