60 Working with Hyperlinks and Interactivity
To create a new hyperlink in existing text, you would first select the
range of text you wanted to link, then click the Hyperlink button. The
same dialog would appear, and then linking would be simply a matter
of choosing the destination and clicking OK.
From a design standpoint, it makes sense to include a navigation
bar—a cluster of links to the various key pages on your site. Put it on
the master page, so the same links will appear on each page. Instead of
using separate text frames, as in the Web Wizard publication, you
might use a single frame across the top of your page, with the links
centered—for example:
However you design it, consider your navigation bar an essential
element. Users will expect it to be there to help them get around your
site. Again, it makes sense to plan your basic layouts ahead of time.
Hyperlinking graphics

for linking graphic objects is the same as that for linking text. You just
select the object to be linked and click the Hyperlink button.
 Click the Current Page box to switch back to the page layer.
 With the Pointer tool, click on a photo to select it, then click the
Hyperlink button.
Again, you’ll see the Hyperlinks dialog. This is the technique you’d use
to hyperlink an entire object. Compare this with the hotspot method,
explained below.
