Your File Library can contain any kind of document you
desire, including images, word processor documents, spreadsheets, PDF documents
and more. You can then provide links to these documents in any of your
site's content pages so your clients can easily download them. To add a link to
a document in your file library, you must first upload it from either the File Library function, or from the Content Editor's
File Manager. To insert a link to a
document...
- In the Content Editor, place your
cursor where you'd like to insert the link to the document. Alternately,
if you want to turn some existing text or an image into a link to a document,
select the text (or image) you want the user to click.
- Click the Document Manager icon (the one that looks like
a globe with two enclosed chain links.
- In the screen that appears, select the desired document from your File
Library, or click on the Upload
Document tab to upload a new one.
- Type a brief description of the document into the Tooltip
field. This description then pops up whenever someone hovers the cursor
over the link and provides search engines with one other piece of information
they can use to rank your site.
- Finally, choose a Target from the drop-down menu
provided. Options are:
- New Window - Opens the web page in a new window
- Same Window - Opens the web page in the main window
- Frame - Opens the web page in a frame - keeping just
your site header intact.
- IFrame - Opens the web page in a frame - keeping just
your site header and side navigation intact.
- When finished, click Insert to place the link to your
document into your web page.
