Interactive HTML TutorialNavigation Within A Document... Wouldn't it be nice to be able to click a link and move to another area within the same page? Well you can. You will use the normal anchor tag (<A HREF>) except instead of placing another page in the quotes, we will use a named portion of the document, which begins with a #. To name the part of the document, go to the area you want to name, and place <a name="name_of_area">text</a>, then to call a link to that place from somewhere else in the document, use <a href="#name_of_area">text</a> Example: <a href="#section2">Go To Section 2</a><br> blah<br> blah<br> blah<br> blah<br> blah<br> blah<br> <a name="section2">Welcome To Section 2!</a> Go To Section 2 blah blah blah blah blah blah Welcome To Section 2! Once you have the section named, you can even call it from other documents... for example, if you named a section in index.html called section2, you could call it from bookmarks.html using <a href="index.html#section2">. Your own HTML page... Add the following to your HTML page ("Home.htm") (the blue text is what to add). <html> <head><title>My Home Page</title></head> <!-- The body starts here - and a background image is loaded --> <body background="bgnd.gif"> <!-- This is a heading, in blue --> <center><font color="Blue"><h1>YOURNAME's Home Page</h1></font></center> <!-- This is a horizontal line --> <hr> <!-- My name and the two images are all part of a link - which is a "mailto" link --> This is the home page of <a href="mailto:YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS"><img src="bullet.gif" border=0><b>YOURNAME</b>.<img src="bullet.gif" border=0></a> <p>Type something about yourself here. Describe briefly who you are and what you do for a living. Remember to use bold and italic text, for emphasis.</p> <!-- This is an ordered list of sections in the document --> <ol> <!-- The first item is a link to a section labelled FavLinks --> <li><a href="#FavLinks">My Favourite Web Sites</a></li> <!-- The second item is a link to a section labelled Hobbies --> <li><a href="#Hobbies">My Hobbies</a></li> </ol> <hr> <!-- This command labels this point as section FavLinks --> <a name="FavLinks"> <h2>My favourite Web Sites</h2> </a> <br> <!-- This list is an unordered list --> <ul> <li> <a href="http://www.xencon.com">Xenon Web Design</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.microsoft.com">Microsoft</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.sybase.com">Sybase</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.sybase.co.za">Sybase South Africa</a> </li> </ul> <hr> <!-- This command labels this point as section Hobbies --> <a name="Hobbies"> <h2>My Hobbies</h2> </a> Talk about your hobbies here. </body> </html> Save the text file as "Home.htm". |
