Claris Home Page makes it easy for you to create links from your Web page to other:

• pages in your site
  
• places in the same page
  
• sites on the Web
  

You can also create special kinds of links to pages so they appear in frames, and links to databases so they appear in forms (see Adding frames to your Web page and Adding forms to your Web page for more information).

You can make text, images, or specific parts of an image (called an image map) into hypertext links that connect to pages, anchors in a page, and other Internet-accessible resources, such as email addresses.

Every page or resource on the World Wide Web needs to have an address so that you can link to it. This address is referred to as a URL, or Uniform Resource Locator. When you create links to other Web sites or to Internet resources , you must specify the exact URL of the destination. However, when you create a link to another page or anchor within a page in your Web site, Claris Home Page automatically inserts the required URL.

It's best to have the contents of your Web pages in place before you begin creating links. Making a flow chart of your pages can help you keep track of where you want to add links and where those links should lead. (For more information, see Outlining the structure of the site.)
