Herllo all!

lately I have downloaded this new tool, Webbudget. It is nice, but I do not understand that the tool comes with special treatment for URLs, Hyperlinks, whereas the outsourcer normally pays for the text content. In my experience, normally the URL etc., remains unchanged and the hyperlinks can be as a matter of choice overwritting, coving the original link, that is the file is fully optically converted. Now I use various tools amongst which also Trados, Tag-editor which is giving me best results. I find this to be too expensive. Or is there any secret which I am missing, to give this tool that price.
all help and comments will be appreciated.

Translating links May 30, 2004

Hi Brandis,

In simple HTML a hyperlink can consist of three elements that might need translation or localization: the readable text (example), the link itself ("http://www.eloquo.com/") and the text that pops up when you hover over the link. Here’s an example of the HTML code involved, but I’m not sure it will survive:

This is an example.

Regards,
Gerard
