You will be used to the idea of using
webpage images as "buttons" to click on to go to further pages. Clip art
sites often offer link graphics that have the appearance of being real
buttons as on a radio or other piece of electronic equipment.
Wouldn't it be good if you could produce a button which appeared to depress when you clicked on it ?
Well it is possible to do that by introducing some code into your webpage.
You customize the button with your desired wording and specify the linked page or website.
This is an example of a clickable button:
Below are the instructions to copy and paste the desired HTML code into your webpage using Windows Notepad or similar HTML webpage editor:
Select the HTML code below (by "right clicking" with your mouse cursor inside the below code box window, then choose "select all" from the options). Then right click again on the highlighted text with your mouse cursor and choose "copy" from the options.
Then, open your desired webpage in Windows Notepad.
Move mouse pointer to location you require the code to be inserted on your page, and left click there once to leave the flashing cursor.
Then right click and choose "paste" from the options.
