Hyperlink?

fcoulter · 03-25-2010, 07:48 PM

Yes, I know that not all eReaders support hyperlinks. However, I don't know how to add them into a document using Sigil.

Is there a tutorial?

Do you mean hyperlinks to footnotes or so? You'll have to do this in the code view. E.g.

Code:

<p><a href="#note1">See footnote 1</a></p>

<p><a id="note1">1</a>Here comes the text of footnote 1</p>

One Tag is the hyperlink and the other is the destination.

But this is plain XHTML, not specifically Sigil related. So just google for "hyperlink html" and you will find everything you need.

A good hyperlink editor is on the "to do" list for Sigil.

I would like a Tag Pair delete-er

Where you right click within a tag and the matching one of the pair of the Tag is found and both are removed., leaving all else in place..

For those cases when you switch to code view to see what is happening and going "Oh! S... What was it doing"?
