hotlink
 /hot'link/, 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.
