Hypertext is text displayed on a computer monitor or other electronic devices with (hyperlinks) to other text which the reader can immediately access, or where text can be revealed progressively at multiple levels of detail.
Description
Hypertext pages are interconnected by hyperlinks, typically activated by a mouse click, keypress sequence or by touching the screen.
Apart from text, hypertext is sometimes used to describe tables, images and other presentational content forms with hyperlinks.
Hypertext is the underlying concept defining the structure of the World Wide Web, with pages often written in the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).
Hypertext enables an easy-to-use and flexible connection and sharing of information over the Internet.
Hypertext structure
Note how hypertext is not just flat text with highlights or paragraphs omitted during display, but rather, the text is hyper-structured with hyperlinks or other structures embedded inside a page, including hidden search words, to control the display and connection with other pages or hypertext nodes.
