How to Link HTML

Basic HTML Tags



The World Wide Web is made up of millions of linked Web pages. One of the best features about the web is the ability to link from one web page to another anywhere in the world. Linking can also be done within the same Web site, or even within the same Web page. Knowing how to create links that you learned in Project 2. If you want to see the HTML tags used for each type of link, please click on the link above.

Within a Page

To link within a Web page, you must set targets. Then you link to those targets with an HREF=tag, using the target name within the quotes.

Same Web Site, New Web Page

To link within a Web site, you use the HREF=tag, typing the linked page name between the quotes.

New Web Site

Linking to another site is the same as linking to a page on the same site, but you must tupe the entire URL within the quotes after the HREF=tag.

E-Mail

An e-mail link is a bit different. You must use the phrase mailto:e-mail address within the quotes after the HREF=tag.
