Abstract

The accessibility of information on web-space is considered to be focused on the properties of hyperlinks. Although the reasons to put in a hyperlink are multifarious, only one kind of link exists in HTML structure. As a result of this, users have to search for links by using syntactically techniques so as to retrieve information in web-space. In this paper, four kinds of hyper links are introduced into HTML, in order to improve the accessibility of information in web-space: External links, Internal links, Navigation links and Intra-unit links. Designers and users can share the image of the link target page by using these kinds of links.
