Title: pictures as link in the briefings/overviews
Post by: 456820 on 04 Jun 2005, 17:30:37

im wondering if i can add a ppicture in the overview or briefing files and use it as a link to take me to a new page where i can have the story so far ?

I didn't try it (yet), but I think it can't be much different from making a standard section, so try this: <a href = "#picture name"></a>.

EDIT:  Forgot: in needed section place: <a name = "picture name"></a>.

It's from the head, so it might not be entirely correct.

Hey, 456820, this might be more correct:

<a href = "#sectionname"><img src = "picturename" width = "num" height = "num"></a>

and:

<a name = "sectionname"></a>

If is not, then wait on reply from someone that have already done this.

i know Sui has already done this and thas what gave me the idea in the overview i just want a small picture wich goes to a new page (with a link back of course) so i can explain why the player is here and so on at the beging of my campaign.
ill have a go with your idea Karantan

This should pretty much work...

Code: [Select]

<h4><a href="#yourSection"><img src="yourPic.paa" width="W" height="H"></a></h4>Of course change all the necessary values to what you need...

So I think Karantan was quite right...

EDIT:
You can't actually have multiple pages in OFP, just 'jumps' to some different part of the same page...

Use that same kind of line as with the pic, but remove the img src...

Code: [Select]

<h4><a href="#yourSection"></a></h4>
Of course now the section should be changed to the name of the 'page' you originally use the pic link...
