Hyperlinking Within An Html Presentation Using R Markdown

I hope I've tagged this correctly - I'd like to create an HTML presentation using Markdown in R Studio. What I'd like to do is to create hyperlinks that will jump to a specified pa

Solution 1:

It's possible, although the result isn't perfect:

[Slide 4](#4)

ioslides opens links in new windows by default, so the links won't work in the RStudio preview, and will create new browser tabs at runtime.

It's much easier if you don't care about markdown purity--a little HTML and JavaScript go a long way:

<ahref="javascript:slidedeck.loadSlide(4)">Slide 4</a>

Solution 2:

R Markdown produces slides which can be href'd by title; this should work:

## Slide 1

This is the first slide. I'd like to be able to insert hyperlinks to
a different page within the slide. For example:

[Slide 2](#/my-second-slide) - clicking this would jump to slide 2

[Slide 3](#/my-third-slide) - clicking this would jump to slide 3## My second slide

Text for slide 2

## My third slide
