Navigation Links

After you have created HTML pages and set up a publication, you'll want to create connections between your Ebook documents.

You can establish links to any text or image anywhere within a document, including text or images located in a table or frame.

There are several different ways of creating and managing links. Some people prefer to create links to nonexistent pages or files as they work, while others prefer to create all the files and pages first and then add the links.

Both Navigation Links and a Table of Contents, which appears on the Navigation Pane, offer easy access to your Ebook pages.
You can use both them or just only one to provide navigation to your readers.

Frames

One practical way to creating navigation links is to place all links inside a frame.

A frame is a region in a browser window that can display an HTML document independent of what's being displayed in the rest of the browser window.

Frames extend the layout flexibility of web pages by allowing the visible client area to be divided into more than one sub-region. Each sub-region, or frame, has several properties:

1) It can load a URL, independently of the other frames.
2) It can be given a NAME, allowing it to be targeted by other URL's
3) It resizes itself dynamically in response to changes in the size of the visible client area, and it can choose to allow or disallow itself to be manually resized by the user.

Please check-out your preferred HTML Editor help file to see how to design and implement frames with it.

Links on the Home page

Other common and very easy way to handle links is to place all them in the Home Page. Since the user always is just one click away the Home Page, going back there is not a problem.

Links on each page

Also links can be place in a table on the top, bottom, or left side of each page, as well as placing there Browse Sequence buttons.
