3 Click Assign to assign the hyperlink to the selected object. Invalid characters in page names Because some special characters are invalid in Web page names, Canvas converts these characters if they are in a page or slide name that you select in the URL Attachment palette. If invalid characters appear in a page name, Canvas replaces the char- acters with underscores when Canvas assigns a URL. Invalid charac- ters include a blank space and the characters in the following table. Format of hyperlinks Canvas creates links among pages using only file names, not com- plete URLs. The “Create Absolute URLs” option in the “Directories for Server Aliases” dialog box does not affect links to pages or slides within a Canvas document. Therefore, when you create a series of linked Web pages from a Can- vas document, be sure to keep the resulting files together in the same folder or directory on the Web server so the links among the pages function correctly.
