Is it possible to have a clickable link in the text of an email that will
"jump" to a photo that is inserted farther down in the email? |

You would have to use the Source tab and create the link in the code.

![]() Ron: This reminds me of the fellow who asked another person on the street if he had the time. The other person answered to the affirmative, yet walked on without telling him what time it was. As I read through the series of replies here--and there seems to be, shall we say, "a difference of opinion," I think what I'd like to do is possible....but not by me if I don't know how to do it. I know how to do a hyperlink, of course, to a web site but to a photo resident in the email I'm sending....I can't figure it out. If you could think of a site I could go to to give me the step by step......thanks. pinger |

Say the anchor's name is "#ThisPic". The link, depending on what you're writing the code with, will look somethign like: This_is_a_link#ThisPic The octothorpe (#) signifies to the program to go to the bookmark by that name. The anchor only needs to preced the location you want by at least one line or could even be on the same line, but a line before is better viewing wise because where the anchor is will be at the top of the screen. Here's the anchor: A NAME="tip" The anchor can be on the same line or any line prior to wherever "top" is chosen to be on the page, or in your case just before the line the image is on would be best so it's obvious the whole picture is being shown. And here's the link to it: A HREF="#tip" top/A Look at the Source Code of just about any page you go to that does essentially what you want to do. Unfortunately though there are as many ways to do this as there are beans in a can of beans, so to really understand a little reading might help the most; any of the following should be of help to you: http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_a.asp ---- Excellent resources, tutorials, articles, etc. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html http://www.hypergurl.com/anchors.html and finally, the 'a' tag in general: http://www.htmlquick.com/reference/tags/a.html I'd have given you all this info before but you seemed to indicate you knew about tags and links and just needed something to point you in the right direction in general. w3schools.com, BTW, is one of the best references and learning centers there is for learning many different languages and their nuances. Snoop around and I think you'll lke what you findg. HTH, Twayne` |

With OE there is a problem in that the user also has to remove the BASE
Href= that OE creates, so one has to go to View | Source Edit and then click on the source tab and remove it. Otherwise the internal anchors are referencing the BASE href (which by default is the location of the stationery folder on the local computer) and not the local page. steve "Twayne" wrote in message ...

The BASE Href is only added when you use stationery.
So if you want to use stationery, you have to change the stationery link to a full address link. -- Ron Sommer "Steve Cochran" wrote in message ...
