Adding hyperlinks to your learning object

This section describes how to add hyperlinks to the pages of your learning object. Before you try to add any hyperlinks, however, read the “The LOSettings.js file” section, which describes an array that is used to navigate through the learning object. This array is utilized during the creation of all hyperlinks.

To add a hyperlink to a page of your learning object:

Open the relevant learning object page in Dreamweaver.
Select the text or image that you want to create a hyperlink for.
In the Link field of the Properties dialog box, enter the following code: javascript:parent.nav.RightSide.goAnyPage(x) where x is the array index number of the page you want to link to. Remember that arrays begin at 0, so if you wanted to create a hyperlink to the tenth page of your learning object, for example, you would enter:
javascript:parent.nav.RightSide.goAnyPage(9)
Repeat this procedure for each hyperlink you wish to create.
To add hyperlinks to any page of your learning object, you must use the goAnyPage function as described above. If you don’t, student progress tracking will be interrupted.
Once you have finished adding hyperlinks to the page, select File - Save.
