Creating Hyperlinks
To create a link, click on the External Link button:
After you click on the button the hyperlink box will then pop up.
The first drop down allows you to select the protocol you would like to use for the link. The following options are available:
http:// -- used to link to another page in your website
https:// -- used to link to another page in your website through a secure connection
mailto:// -- used to open up a new mail window on the customers screen
ftp:// -- used to link to an ftp site for a file download
news:// -- used to link to a newsgroup article
Note: If you are linking to a page within your website we highly recommend that you leave this box blank. Using http:// when trying to access a page once a site is using the secure certificate can cause errors.
Once you've selected the protocol you would like to use you can then enter the destination of the link in the second text box.
The target dropdown allows you to designate where you want the link to appear at.
Self opens the link in the current window. If you are using frames on the page then it will open the link in the frame that contains the link.
Blank opens the link in a new browser window.
Parent opens the link in the parent browser. If you are using frames then it will open the link will open in the browser and not use the designated frame set. If you had the link in a pop-up then the link would open in the window that the pop-up came from.
The Name field allows you to specify what is actually displayed on the screen. If you had a link to contact_us.asp and you wanted the link to say Contact Us then you would enter that in the Name box.
