Hyperlinks and Such » Janelle

In reply to ISO: thanks for that great link, 1 other question: » IsoM, posted by Janelle on March 22, 2002, at 2:09:22

Hyperlinks are the blue underlined words (not URLs) that you find in an article. If you click on that word, it'll take you to another page (site) with info about that word.

If you don't want to go to another page completely, right-click on the word, instead of left-clicking, & select "Open in New Window" so you don't leave your original article.

Someone else asked what a URL means in PB Social - it's stands for Uniform Resource Locator, in other words, a uniform (the same for all) resource (internet addresses for info & resources) locator (self-explanatory). There's many different systems out there - IBM type computers, Mac pcs are two; many different browsers - two that are well known are Navigator & Internet Explorer; so many differences, so something uniform is needed for all computers to access the same information.

HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol. The protocol (the right method) for transfering a person to the hypertexted (linked) URLs on the internet.

Sheeezz! I hope I didn't overdo the explanation. Sorry.
