Q. When my wife passed on, I decided to type up her recipes. Many of them were handwritten by her, her mother and mine. I want to put the recipes together on CDs for other family members. I have four children and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. How can I create a table of contents so they can click on a title to display a specific recipe?
A. I am sorry to hear about your wife's passing. I'm sure it is difficult to lose someone with whom you've built a family and share a long history.
Sharing her recipes is a great way to remember her. Your family members will love to have the recipes she used.
Creating a table of contents will be easy. It only seems difficult until you've done it. Since I've written a number of e-books that have tables of contents, I'm a pro at this. So let's get to it!
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the easiest way to create your table of contents. HTML is the basic language used to create Web pages. It allows you to format text and insert images. Most importantly, it allows you to insert links.
You can create a page listing all the recipes arranged however you like. Then you can turn the text into links. When someone clicks on the text, the recipe opens. The page will open in a Web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Firefox.
