Link
Hyperlink

A link can appear as a graphic or text. Text links are usually in another color than the other text on the page and is sometimes underlined. The standard color of a text link is medium blue, however other colors are also used.

When you click on a text or graphic link with a mouse, you either:

1. Transport or "jump" the viewer to another website or another webpage on the same website.

2. If it is a download link, it will initiate the downloading of a software program to your computer.

3. Launch (or open) a helper application, such as an email program.

4. If a banner graphic, you will be transported or "jump" to the advertiser's website.
