CREATE
HYPERLINKS IN PHOTO GALLERY CAPTIONS You can use the Photo Gallery feature in FrontPage version 2002 to quickly create a faculty staff directory on your school Web site. By adding captions and descriptions below each picture with Hyperlinks within each caption, students can jump to a teacher’s schedule and contact, course or special activities information. In FrontPage 2002, when a Photo Gallery is created, folders and a number of files are automatically created by FrontPage. You can edit one of these files, named “real.htm”, to add custom Hyperlinks within your Photo Gallery. To create captions or descriptions below your images and make Hyperlinks in them, open a new page and create a new photo gallery or open a page with an existing gallery in FrontPage 2002, and do the following: 1. Right-click anywhere on the photo gallery in Normal view and select Photo Gallery Properties. 2. To add captions and descriptions to images in your gallery, select an image from the list under the Add button. 3. Add text in the Caption: and Description: text areas, for the image. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3, then click OK for each image and save the page. 5. After FrontPage saves the page, in Folder List view, look for the folder named "Photogallery", open it and open the folder inside named "PhotoXXX" (where XXX is a random number). 6. Inside PhotoXXX, double click the file, “real.htm” to open it in Page view. Note: Do not edit any other .htm files in the “PhotoXXX” folder. 7. Select the text under an image, right-click it, and select Hyperlink… in the dropdown menu. 8. In Insert Hyperlink create a hyperlink, click OK and save the page.
