Images with Hyperlink

[Ramesh Suribhatla <ra...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I am having a problem to create a hyperlink to an
image. The HTML and the corresponding FO generated are
as below.

<a href="http://www.sun.com">
   <img border="0" src="lgsun.gif" alt="Sun">
</a>

<fo:basic-link external-destination =
"http://www.sun.com">
   <fo:external-graphic src =
"file:C:\Ramesh\html2fo\lgsun.gif"/>
</fo:basic-link>

The image is being shown in PDF but it is not having a
link.

Is this FO OK? If not, can you please tell me what is
wrong and also give me some advice if you have
experienced this problem. 

Thank you,
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,

As mentioned before what you are trying is not supported.

I was going to say you could use svg to have a link around an image but
it appears that there are a couple of bugs.

You are trying to use an image as a hot spot for a
link. This is currently not supported by FOP. You
can only use text. There is no really good workaround.
