In Netscape, links are stored in Url objects. These are distinctly different to Anchor objects.
MSIE does not distinguish between the two but since there is no constructor, it is hard to know what object type they are. Generally they are assumed to be Url objects.
Because the class name is Url in Netscape, the link objects are discussed in detail under that lexical topic location.
MSIE supports a LINK object class but this is a special object that stems from a styleSheet item. It doesn't support all the properties that a Url object does and is probably more concerned with managing the appearance of a Url object on the screen.
