Separator
A separator is another really easy block that can provide visual separation
between items of information. I’ve inserted one between the column block and
the table block below.
You try it out and do the same. Isn’t that easy? You’re getting plenty of block
practice in this section but there are a few more to go yet.
Buttons
The button block is very useful and can be used for a variety of things. You used
it earlier to create links. A button is a call for action; to do something. It is
therefore useful if you want your visitor to click on it to get more information or
go to a document for instance. It could be used to divert the visitor to an
external website as you saw earlier. One of the things that my less-IT literate
members struggle with is clicking on something but then not being able to
remember how to get back to where they were. Yes, I know they could use the
‘back’ button but an old memory can’t always remember this. Adding a button at
the end of a page to return to a main page would be most helpful to members
like this and that is what I have done below. You need a live server-hosted site to
see this in action as you need to link the button to the required page via a URL
and as this is a simulation, we can’t do that.
What could you use a button for? Create one now and position it below the
table you created.
