Hi Sudhakar,

A Hyperlink is an element in an electronic document that links to another place in the same document or to an entirely different document. Typically, you click on the hyperlink to follow the link. Hyperlinks are the most essential ingredient of all hypertext systems, including the World Wide Web

Hyperlink is a link on a page that connects you to another spot on the page, a seperate page, or another website. An external hyperlink is a hyperlink that connects you to another website.

Reward Points if Useful.

Thanks & regards,

AMK.

hai

sudhakar,

This is very simple concept and we use it very frequently. When you click on a particular line, if it leads to another page, then it is called hyper link. it means, it has a link with another page. In the sdn , you are finding so many replies consits of hyperlinks. These are easily identified by different color with underline.

if useful, reward points.

Thank you.

Hi,

A hyperlink, is a reference or navigation element in a document to another section of the same document or to another document that may be on or part of a (different) domain.

Embedded link

An embedded link is a link embedded in an object such as hyper text or a hot area. Example: The first word of this sentence is an "example" of an embedded link.

Hot area

A hot area (image map in HTML) is an invisible area of the screen that covers a text label or graphical images. A technical description of a hot area is a list of coordinates relating to a specific area on a screen created in order to hyperlink areas of the image to various destinations, disable linking via negative space around irregular shapes, or enable linking via invisible areas. For example, a map of the world may have each irregular shaped country hyperlinked to further information about that country. A separate invisible hot area interface allows for swapping skins or labels within the linked hot areas without repetitive embedding of links in the various skin elements.

Inline link

An inline link displays remote content without the need for embedding the content. The remote content may be accessed with or without the user selecting the link. Inline links may display specific parts of the content (e.g. thumbnail, low resolution preview, cropped sections, magnified sections, description text, etc.) and access other parts or the full content when needed, as is the case with print publishing software. This allows for smaller file sizes and quicker response to changes when the full linked content is not needed, as is the case when rearranging a page layout.

Random accessed

Random-accessed linking data are links retrieved from a data base or variable containers in a program when the retrieval function is from user interaction (e.g. dynamic menu from an address book) or non-interactive (e.g. random, calculated) process.

Hardware accessedA hardware-accessed link is a link that activates directly via an input device (e.g. keyboard, microphone, remote control) without the need or use of a graphical user interface.

History of the hyperlink

The term "hyperlink" was coined in 1965 (or possibly 1964) by Ted Nelson at the start of Project Xanadu. Nelson had been inspired by "As We May Think," a popular essay by Vannevar Bush. In the essay, Bush described a microfilm-based machine (the Memex) in which one could link any two pages of information into a "trail" of related information, and then scroll back and forth among pages in a trail as if they were on a single microfilm reel. The closest contemporary analogy would be to build a list of bookmarks to topically related Web pages and then allow the user to scroll forward and backward through the list.

In a series of books and articles published from 1964 through 1980, Nelson transposed Bush's concept of automated cross-referencing into the computer context, made it applicable to specific text strings rather than whole pages, generalized it from a local desk-sized machine to a theoretical worldwide computer network, and advocated the creation of such a network. Meanwhile, working independently, a team led by Douglas Engelbart (with Jeff Rulifson as chief programmer) was the first to implement the hyperlink concept for scrolling within a single document (1966), and soon after for connecting between paragraphs within separate documents (1968).

hi s.babu,

pls see the below document

Entering Hyperlinks

Use

You can set a hyperlink from the HTML editor to external documentation.

You can use the HTML editor to enter simply structured documentation for an object. If this object requires comprehensive, complexly structured documentation, you can record this documentation externally. You can then set a hyperlink from the HTML editor to this documentation. An internal company Intranet or the SAP Knowledge Warehouse can be used for external documentation storage.

This is an additional option when using the HTML editor that is integrated in the ES Builder.

If external documentation already exists for the object in SAP Solution Composer, we recommend that you use the other option and link to this existing documentation.

More information: Navigating to Object Documentation in SAP Solution Composer

Prerequisites

You have opened the object to be documented. You have displayed the HTML editor.

Procedure

...

1. To switch to change mode, choose Change Documentation( ) in the documentation editor.

2. In the upper screen area (HTML editor), select the block in which you want to set the hyperlink.

3. Set a hyperlink to the external documentation in the HTML source code.

You now have the following options:

○ Hyperlink to any external documentation; specify the relative URL

Use the following syntax: DOCU:PLAIN:<relative path>. The complete syntax for the hyperlink in HTML source code is then in the following form (example): <a href="DOCU:PLAIN:dir/support/index.html">Plain Link</a>)

You can link documentation that is recorded on your internal company Intranet.

○ Hyperlink to documentation in SAP Knowledge Warehouse; specify the LOIO

You can link documentation that you have recorded in the SAP Library.

Use the following syntax for the hyperlink address: DOCU:KW:<LOIO>. The complete syntax for the hyperlink in HTML source code is then in the following form: <a href="DOCU:KW:<LOIO>">Link-Text</a>.

The LOIO is the 32-figure GUID for the respective information object in the SAP Knowledge Warehouse. You can determine this GUID from the browser preview for the information object in the Knowledge Warehouse.

Example of a hyperlink in the HTML source code: <a href="DOCU:KW:086D143F4320D036E10000000A114084">KW Link</a>

○ Specify an absolute Internet address

If you specify the absolute internet address when you link to an Internet page, you can specify the Internet address in HTML source code by using the usual syntax.

To specify optional parameters, enhance the syntax as follows: DOCU:PLAIN:<relative path>[?<optional parameter>] or DOCU:KW:<relative path>[?<optional parameter>]. You can specify the documentation release by setting a hyperlink to documentation in the SAP Knowledge Warehouse.

<a href="DOCU:KW:086D143F4320D036E10000000A114084?release=640”>Link (SAP Knowledge Warehouse, Release 6.40)</a>

To ensure that a complete URL can be generated from your entries, the basic URL (e.g. http://www.sap.com/) address must be defined correctly by the administrator. If your hyperlink does not link to the correct target document, contact your administrator. For information about entering the basis address of the URL, see the SAP XI configuration guide
