HYPERMEDIA AND HYPERTEXT.

HYPERTEXT.

q
Hypertext is basically the same as regular text - it can be stored, read, searched, or edited
qhypertext is text with pointers to other text.
qThe browsers let you deal with the pointers in a transparent way -- select the pointer, and you are presented with the text that is pointed to.

nHypermedia

qHypermedia is a superset of hypertext.
qHypermedia documents contain links not only to other pieces of text, but also to other forms of media - sounds, images, and movies.
qImages themselves can be selected to link to sounds or documents.
q This means that browsers might not display a text file, but might display images or sound or animations.
qHypermedia simply combines hypertext and multimedia.
