[FONT=”Times New Roman”][SIZE=”3″][COLOR=”Navy”]Greetings!
I’m new to these forums and new to a need to learn enough about HTML to solve some pressing needs.
I am creating PowerPoint (2003 currently) to create presentations of in-depth curricula that access HTML and PDF via Internet and Intranet. I have absolutely no way to modify my targets and so am learning to modify my hyperlinks to make things work effectively.
When I have very long HTML pages, I often want to access specific locations on the pages. Where there are numeric lists, I can do that with the #para command. In a PDF file, I can get to the page I want via the #page= command. That part’s all good.
My problem is when I need to access a very long list of reference numbers (hundreds of them all on one HTML page, for example) and the one I want is 3/4s of the way down the page.
My research thus far tells me that I can create an anchor that references something unique on my target page and then somehow access that anchor from my PowerPoint slide. It seems to have something to do with putting stuff in the scripting for that particular slide. This paragraph is my dilemma.
If someone can either provide a link to a good tutorial or a reference book, a course, or something to make this thing work elegantly instead of by brute force and awkward scrolling for those who will use the PPT presentation, I’ll be grateful. TIA.
