Linking ePub files to eachother
Hi all,

Does anyone know how to create a link in one ePub file that links to an anchor in another ePub file?

In other words, is it possible to link ePub files to eachother, for example a name of a person in one ePub file to a bibliography of that person in another ePub file?

Would be great to be able to link e-Books to eachother

I don't think this is possible, though you can of course link something in one file within an epub file to another file in the same epub, provided both are in the spine.

You can also have hyperlinks to external URLs (a link to Project Gutenberg or to Google Books). It may be possible to have a link to an external file, but I don't think any ePUB reader supports that.
