What is the exact code I need to place in the "URL" box to make it so the hotspot will take me to another html doc?

I tried a few things and none seem to work

There is nothing really special about the URLs in hotspots. Any URL you can use in an <a href="..."> should also work in a hotspot.

For example, if your VR is in the web page a.html and you want to link to a web page called b.html that is in the same directory, you can simply put b.html in the URL field of the Hotspot properties dialog box.

If the page you are linking to is in a different directory, you can enter a relative pathname. For example, to link from topfolder/onefolder/a.html to topfolder/otherfolder/b.html, you would use ../otherfolder/b.html.

If the page you are linking to is on a different web server, you need to include http:// to be clear that it is not a relative pathname. So, for example, you might use something like http://www.otherserver.com/b.html.

I hope this helps, but if you are still having problems after reading this, please give more details of what you have tried and why it doesn't seem to work the way you expect.

Hi

I also have problem with hotspot linking and IE6. Everything works OK on local machine but when I upload the images to a webpage, clicking on hotspot doesnt do anything. However, with Firefox brauser the link opens in new page.
Any ideas?
