Create Hyperlinks in Photo Gallery Captions 

After you create a Photo Gallery using Microsoft FrontPage® version 2002, you can add captions and descriptions below your images. You can further customize your Photo Gallery by making Hyperlinks within each caption or description. When a Photo Gallery is created, folders and a number of files are automatically created by FrontPage. You can edit one of these the files, named "real.htm", to add custom Hyperlinks within your Photo Gallery.

To create captions or descriptions below your images and make Hyperlinks in them, open a new page and create a new photo gallery or open a page with an existing gallery in FrontPage 2002, and do the following: 

  1. Right-click anywhere on the photo gallery in Normal view and select Photo Gallery Properties.
  2. To add captions and descriptions to images in your gallery, select an image from the list under the Add button.
  3. Add text for the image in the Caption: and Description: text areas.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each image, then click OK, and save the page.
  5. After FrontPage saves the page, in Folder List view, look for the folder named Photogallery, open it and open the folder inside named PhotoXXX (where XXX is a random number).
  6. Inside PhotoXXX, double click the file, real.htm to open it in Page view.

    Note: Do not edit any other .htm files in the "PhotoXXX" folder.

  7. Select the text under an image, right-click it, and select Hyperlink… in the dropdown menu.
  8. In Insert Hyperlink create a hyperlink, click OK, and save the page.

Tip: Viewing the new link using Preview view in FrontPage, will not display links within the Photo Gallery. Preview it in the browser to see the link. To learn how to change hyperlink formatting see, Flexible Formatting of Hyperlinks Using CSS
