Creating a link to an anchor on
another page
|
|
To illustrate the usefulness of making a
link to an anchor on another page you are going to be asked
to visit a page two different ways.
- Go to a page of Earth
and Space science links and
scroll down until you find a list of Weather links. After
you find them use the Back button from the Netscape
toolbar to return to this page. The URL used for this
link was
http://www.memphis-schools.k12.tn.us/admin/tlapages/earthspace.htm
- You are going back to the same page.
However, the second link URL includes a link to the
anchor located at the beginning
of the Weather links. That
anchor was named weather, thus the entire URL is
http://www.memphis-schools.k12.tn.us/admin/tlapages/earthspace.htm#weather

A page written by someone
else
If you found a page on the Internet with
an anchor that you think will be useful, this is handled
just as you would produce any link. When you copy the link
make sure that it has the anchor link at the end. For
example:
- http://www.memphis-schools.k12.tn.us/admin/tlapages/earthspace.htm#weather

A page you wrote
If you have written two pages with Claris
HomePage and want to provide a link on one page to an anchor
on the second page the process is best done from the Insert
menu
- Highlight the word or phrase that
will become the link.
- From the Insert menu select
Link to File...
- Click the Open
button
- Open the link editor from the toolbar

- Click behind the URL and enter the
number sign (#) and name of the anchor.

A page you wrote
A more direct method of linking to a page
you wrote uses only the last two steps from the list
above.
- Highlight the word or phrase that
will become the link.
- Open the link editor from the toolbar

- Enter only the name of the page
including the anchor link, as in the window
below:
