Links and XLinks??

[SAM (archive)]

Hi ...

Very new to HTML, not to mention XML and CSS and all the other acronyms.

How can I put a link in an XML document?? I am trying to use CSS to make document look attractive, and succeeding somewhat. But I can't figure out links. I have book, XML Bible by Elliotte Rusty Harold. I think I read it carefully, and this should work:

<WRITE xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple" xlink:href=

But it doesn't.

Appreciate any help.

All attribute value require quotation marks in XML, so the last line should be:

xlink:href="

xlink:href="

Thanks, but it still doesn't work. Looks exactly like this:

<Write xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple" xlink:href=" </Write>

What did you do to test if it works?

Opened the page in IE6. Moved mouse across the text that says `Write.' Mouse cursor changed to ... I don't know what it's called. It looks like a capital `I'. (Different from the way cursor looks when it touches a link.) Clicked on text. Nothing happened.

IE doesn't support XLink. I think Opera does, and Mozilla may.
