A hyperlink or link, is just a connection that redirects you to another Page or file when you click on it.
You can assign a link to a text, to an image, or to part of an image.

Creating links:
The easiest way to create a link is through the properties inspector. To do this you have to select the text or the object which is going to be used as a link, and then you must establish the Link in the inspector.

For example, here there is a link to sree.cc, which will be an absolute reference, so, it must contain HTTP://sree.cc

Another way to create a link is through the Insert menu, and then selecting the Hyperlink option.
It’s possible to create empty links, they can be useful when you use behaviors, etc. You just need to write in Link only the # symbol..

Other way to create a hyperlink is through the menu Insert, Hyperlink option.

Creating links in this way is very easy, you only have to fill the fields we will now explain and the link will be placed where the cursor is.
>>Text:stands fot the text that the link will show.
>>Link:is the page you are making the hyperlink to.
>>Target:the page where you want the link to be opened.
>>Title:its use is almost the same than the Alt attribute of the images. It is the contextual help of the link.
>>Access key: you can set here a key to increase the accessibility of your site. This link will be accessible presing the Alt key and then the key you type in this field.
>>Tab index : as long as you can jump from a link to another using the Tab key, you can set here the order of priority this link will have.
