Hyperlinks Revisited

erosco · 01-14-2010, 10:31 PM

I wasn't very interested in hyperlinks until I started downloading newspapers from pressdisplay.com.

Now I find the implementation frustrating. The epubs generated have a number of hyperlinks on each page of the paper (TOC, Page Back, All Pages, Page Forward, then one link for each story).

Hitting the 0 key over and over to get to a hyperlink is slow as! Can we consider the other solutions discussed??

Hitting the toggle switch (or a particular button) to activate bookmarks, then having each given a number would be the best solution in my opinion.. number 1-8 could jump directly to that bookmark.. if there's more then 9 and 0 could scroll to the next set.

This solution would make any bookmark only a few clicks away and not dependent on multiple (slow) screen refreshes.

Is anyone else suffering like me? Is anyone else using pressdisplay to download epubs?

Thanks

Are you talking about hyperlinks or bookmarks? Your post begins by discussing hyperlinks, and then changes to bookmarks mid-way through!
