Live links to other URL's

If you want to show internet site link to an internet site in this platform this can be done in different ways by linking.

• Use [http://www.example.com linktekst] and by clicking on this link it will be opened in a new screen.

• The second possibility is to make a screenshot (print screen). This means you make a picture of the site as it was at that certain moment. You store this picture on your PC and after this you can upload it as a regular picture into this platform. Of course you have to give the picture a name as explained in Help:Using this wiki-software.

• A third possibility is to have another URL/site embedded in this platform. This will show the other site as it actually is in this platform (a mash up). The code (look in edit) is:

<embedurl>http://www.cnn.com{width=800}{height=200}</embedurl>

This is the code for embedding the site of CNN as it is at this very moment (live). Do not do this to often because using this code often it might slow down the loading of the article. But this code can be very useful!

And, interesting in using this embedding link: all of the links on the CNN site do work properly.

The basic code is:

<embedurl>http://www.cnn.com</embedurl>

You can alter width and height of the embedded part by adding the following to the code. For instance: {width=800}{height=150}

<embedurl>http://www.telegraaf.nl{width=800}{height=150}</embedurl>

Realise that while embedding a site, the actual site as it is at that moment will be shown: so if a site no longer exists for instance, this will be shown as well. So think ahead on using this code.

Partly embedding

We are still working on this: embed a certain section of a destinated URL, so not available right now.
