Linking Multi-Page Resource Documents

There may be times when an administrative user wishes to add a resource that consists of several linked pages. The schematic below represents four below separate pages (HTML documents) that are to be imported as one resource document.

 

 

When the PortalProdigy System imports an HTML document it imports the main or starting HTML page and its related folder. One can demonstrate this by saving a web page using MS Internet Explorer. For example: Visit http://www.PortalProdigy then save onto your desktop, as an HTML file, titled:

 

test5 .

 

The following should appear on your desk top:

 

 

This is the naming protocol that must be used for all HTML document to imported by the Document Manager feature. Some examples:

 

HTML File Name            Folder Name

 

Important.htm

newlaws.htm

17289902.htm

 

How would we prepare the following three pages, with links to each other, for import into the Resource Document Library?

 

 

 

 

 

Method 1: Using this method prevents the site’s style sheets (borders and headers) from appearing on the sub pages (pages 1 and 2) which may be desirable in some cases. Furthermore, sub pages, such as pages 2 and 3, would not be available to visitors from the Resources search and browse functions.

 

 

The hyperlinks used in the code of the Main Demo Page should like like this:

 

<a href=WriteImg.asp?im=Documents/350_files/Page298_files/page2.htm">

<a href=WriteImg.asp?im=Documents/350_files/Page298_files/page3.htm">

 

The hyperlinks used in the code of pages 2 and 3 should like like this:

 

<a href="page2.htm">

<a href="page3.htm">

 

 

 

&

Rule: All linked objects, such as pages, images etc., to be imported with an HTML document, must be stored in one directory which is labeled following the naming protocol described herein.

 

Method 2: Using this method causes all the imported pages to be accessed by visitors using the Resources search and browse methods. It also causes the site’s style sheets (borders and headers) to be included on each page.

 

Create each page using your favorite HTML editor but do not enter the hyperlinks to each other page yet. Be sure to turn off all non-html option such as XML, java, etc. Save each file.

 

From the Site Administration Interface, select the Document Add function and import each file as you normally would.

 

Visit the home page of your website and locate one of the pages which were imported. Note that when you open the page in your browser that an address similar to the following appears:

 

http://www.kidlaw.org/main.asp?uri=1003&di=1.html&dt=0

 

 

That is the URL address of the page displayed.

 

In order to link from another page to the page displayed, one simply inserts a command such as:

 

<A href="http://www.kidlaw.org/main.asp?uri=1003&di=1.html&dt=0">

 

into the HTML code.

 

Visit each Resource Document for which you wish to enter hyperlinks and list their URL address in a convenient place. Then, using the Document Manager feature, check out the Resource Document you wish to add links to and insert the desired href command into the html code then import the updated page into the Resource Library.
