19.5.2.1 Understanding how Mif2Go treats hypertext links
Mif2Go converts most FrameMaker hypertext links into
HTML links. Many kinds of hypertext markers are available:
- Hypertext jumps use gotolink, openlink, or one of their cousins
(such as gotolinkfitwin) to link to
a matching newlink marker. The :firstpage and :lastpage
forms are converted into simple links to the beginning of the file named.
- Message URL markers are passed through untouched
as normal
<a href="...">
links.
Use these for links to external Web sites, mailto:
links, and so forth.
- Markers of the gotopage type cause a jump
to the start of what was the first paragraph on the specified page, even
if the file has been split.
- Markers for previouspage,
nextpage, previouslink,
opennew, popup
(menu), matrix, quit,
quitall, and exit
are always ignored.
- Alert boxes are used only for MS HTML Help, where
they provide simple pop-ups. They are not effective in generic HTML.
