Specifying links

You can add, update, customize, and manage links from HTML and JSP files to other files and objects of other types.

You can specify links in several ways:

Option Description
Link Insertion dialog box Use this dialog box (

Insert | Insert Link) to add links to e-mail addresses, external files or files that you have not yet created.

Properties view Use the Properties view when you need to add a link that will have special attributes.
Drag-and-drop link creation Use this method to select a file in the Enterprise Explorer view or from the Thumbnails view, and drag it into a file that is open in the Design or Source page to create a link to it
Image Map editor Use the Image Map editor (

Edit | Image | Edit Image Map) to define areas of an image to link to different files.

Tip: To change a link destination after you have defined the link, click the link source (text or an image), and then click

Edit | Link | Edit Link to display the Properties view page where you can change the link destination.

To remove a link without deleting the linked text, click the link source and then click

Edit | Link | Remove Link.
