SiteGrinder
What are the SiteGrinder hints associated with hyperlinks?
One of the key things to remember in SiteGrinder is that you often don't need to set hyperlinks directly at all. Remember, that if a button layer and a page layercomp both have the same base name, SiteGrinder will link them together automatically.
Similarly, if a "true text" layer contains a direct URL or email address, SiteGrinder will automatically make it into a clickable link.
The following hints are relevant to hyperlinks:
- -link
- Specifies that the contents of a type layer contains a hyperlink to another web resource, usually a web page. This resource will be loaded by the web browser when the user clicks on the corresponding "-button" layer.
- -@link
- Specifies that the contents of a type layer contains an email link. The format of the link is the simple email address (i.e. help@medialab.com) optionally followed on the next line by a subject for the email message. On the final web page these links will cause a new message with this information to appear in the user's email software.
- -links
- Specifies that the contents of a type layer contains phrases and hyperlinks used to match phrases in the corresponding "-haslinks" type layer and apply the hyperlinks to them. The format of this type layer consists of a phrase lines followed by, link lines. Multiple phrase/link lines are separated from each other by empty lines. Click here for more information.
