External Images

You may want to have an image open as a separate document when a user activates a link on either a word or a smaller, inline version of the image included in your document. This is called an external image, and it is useful if you do not wish to slow down the loading of the main document with larger inline images.

To include a reference to external image, enter:

<A HREF="Your Image.GIF>link anchor</A>

You can also create a smaller image for the link anchor which is linked to the full size image like this:

<A HREF="filename of image"><IMG SRC="filename of image" HEIGHT="50" WIDTH="50"></A>

The reader will see the small image on the page from the second image with the height and width attributes. Clicking this image will load a new page with the full size image in it. You will see a border around the image and while some images don't have borders, this images border indicates the image is a link.

Try it here: Please use your browsers back button to return.

Use the same syntax for links to external animation's and sounds. The only difference is the file extension of the linked file, for example:

<A HREF="Atomspin.mov">link Anchor</A>
