how do links work under manage html?

[robmurtha]

I searched everywhere and could not figure this one out. I am interested in how to properly specify an html link and how to refer to them either in other html or as a url.

What is the benefit?

Thanks,
Rob

I'm not sure i understood the question right.

But let's say you access Nukes by typing:
http://localhost:8080/nukes

If you add an HTML page using the HTML module it asks for a path, let's say you enter:
"/foo/bar.html"

Well a url to your page would be:
http://localhost:8080/nukes/foo/bar.html

Under manage html choose link from the dropdown and then press the new page button. It asks for the following information

File id:
The file id represents the path under which the content is available, it must look like /dir1/dir2/file.html

Link:
The file id represents the path under which the content is available, it must look like /dir1/dir2/file.html

The link comment is the same as the File id comment.

Once a link is added how can it be used? I can see how HTML is used but it is not clear how links are used.

if you link /a/b to /a/c, when you call for /a/b, you see the content of /a/c

Can you use this method or something similar to pull in external pages from an outside source not stored in the nukes db path?

I'd like to be able to specify an index page in the center part of the page layout that is being maintained on another physical file server by someone else....

Right now anytime you add an html link it leaves the nukes portal all together....
