Figure 8-5: Add a new link with the Add New Link page.

Figure 8-6: You can assign a link to an existing category or add a new category here.

If you find that the Link Category is not an option that you use regularly, you can collapse (close) this module by clicking anywhere in the Categories title bar. You can also move the Categories module on the Add New Link page by dragging and dropping it to a new location.

6. (Optional) Select a target for your new link.

Select one of the following radio buttons in the Target section:

• _blank: Loads the link in a new browser window

• _top: Loads the link in the top frame (if your site is designed with frames)

• _none: Loads the link in the same browser window

The third option — None — is my preference and recommendation. I like to let my visitors decide whether they want a bunch of new browser windows opening every time they click a link on my site.

You can reposition the Target module by dragging and dropping it to a new location on the Add New Link page. You can also collapse this module.

7. Set the Link Relationship (XFN) options (Optional).

XFN stands for XHTML Friends Network and allows you to indicate the relationship you have with the people you’re linking to by defining how you know, or are associated with, them. Table 8-1 lists the different relationships you can assign to your links. Link Relationship (XFN) is kind of a silly bookmark-type assignment that indicates how well you know the person whose site or blog you’re linking to by defining your relationship with her. You can find more information on XFN at http://gmpg. org/xfn.

You can reposition the Link Relationship module by dragging and dropping it to a new location on the Add New Link page. You can also collapse (close) this module.
