hotlink

/hotlink/ , n. A hot spot on a World Wide Web page; an area, which, when
clicked or selected, chases a URL. Also spelled hot link. Use of this term
focuses on the link's role as an immediate part of your display, as opposed
to the timeless sense of logical connection suggested by web pointer. Your
screen shows hotlinks but your document has web pointers, not (in normal
usage) the other way around.
