Types of links 
A link is an object that you click to open another FirstClass object or web page. You can create the following types of links: 
 
 
 | 
Shortcuts that are created on your Desktop or in other containers, such as your Bookmarks folder. 
The advantage of the Bookmarks folder is that it keeps all your links in one place.  | 
 
links on toolbars  | 
 | 
 
links in content  | 
There are two types of links that you can add to content:  | 
 
 | 
URL links  | 
Shortcuts to objects on your server, to objects on other FirstClass servers, or to web pages. 
You type the URL for the object to which the link connects (the target object) directly in the content.  | 
 
 | 
embedded links  | 
Shortcuts to objects on your own or other FirstClass servers, or to another location in the current object. 
You create these links using the Insert dropdown on the edit bar. You can make the link text anything you want, or even use embedded pictures as links, unlike URL links. You can also embed markers in content and link to those markers.  | 
 
  
Renaming or deleting links 
You can rename or delete a link, and this will have no effect on the original object.
