82 Working with Hyperlinks and Interactivity
 Select A page in your site and more options become available at
the bottom of the dialog. Click to expand the Page name list and
choose the second page, “About Us.” Then click OK.
The text you selected is now hyperlinked, and appears underlined by
default, using the electric blue color defined for Hyperlinks as part of
the site’s color scheme.
 If you want to test the link right away, you can preview the site in
an internal window (choose File/Preview Site>Preview in
Window, or click the
HTML Preview flyout on the
Standard toolbar and choose the command). Note that the Page
Locator on the HintLine is still available, so you can conveniently
navigate from one page to another.
That’s all there is to it! Now let’s consider linking to an anchor—a
specific location on a page that’s intended to serve as the target for a
hyperlink. Invisible to the Web page visitor, it typically marks a point
within some text (such as the start of a particular section) or an image
partway down a page. With pages as short as those in this particular
template site, anchors won’t prove very useful, but we can at least see
how they work...
Logically, the anchor needs to exist before you can link to it, so your
design process entails working backwards from the link’s target to the
link itself.
