While you are designing your page, you can create links that points you to other pages in your website or other websites. Usually, these links will appear as blue and underlined text. When the visitors will click on them, they will be transferred to the targeted page.

Creating a link in your web page is done by <a> tag (anchor):

<a href=URL>Text to be displayed that will point to URL</a>

Example:

<a href=http://www.yahoo.com>Click Here to visit Yahoo!</a>

 Click Here to visit Yahoo!

● Linking an image:

Linking an image is similar to a text linking and is done by <a> tag: <a href=”URL”><img src=”Image URL”></a>

Example:

<a href="yahoo.com"><imgsrc="yahoo.com/logo.gif"></a>

● Linking an E-mail address:

You can link a text to an email address by simply adding “mailto” before the email address. When visitors click on the link, they will be transferred to their default email client.

<a href=mailto:email@address>Text to be displayed</a>

Example:

<a href=mailto:amailto:admin@htmlfiles.net>Click to Mail me!</a>

 Click to Mail me!
