Creating links and adding images,

Saturday, May 31, 2008

Links within content can be created a number of ways:

Entering HTML Source
You can directly enter valid HTML link tags (a href, img, etc) by switching to the source view (html) and hand entering tags that you are familiar with.

WYSIWYG Controls
The WYSIWYG editor contains controls for easily adding hyperlinks and images.

Adding hyperlinks - The web link control () allows you to specific any valid URL in a pop-up window. To use, select the text you wish to link, click the () icon and enter the URL you wish to reference. The pop-up window also allows you specify if you want the link to open a new window or in the same window and allows you to enter text that will appear upon hovering over the link.

Adding images - The Insert/Modify Image control () allows you to specify any valid image URL. Using this pop-up window you can easily set various attribute that relate to an image. Images may be from other places on the Internet, from this site, attachments to your content, or image nodes from the image gallery.

Note: If you are using a pop-up blocker or have pop-up blocking turned on in Firefox be sure to allow this site to create popups in order for this to work properly.

Special Markup - NOT FOUND: xx
This system also contains a special markup tag which allows you to easily reference attached files. By entering the text such as "NOT FOUND: 1, the system will reference the first attached file.

By adding "=yourtext" to the tag (i.e. NOT FOUND: 1) you may also optionally specify the title text for the file. For images, the title text will be used as a roll-over tooltip. For all other files, the title text will be the actual link text.
