Adding a Link to a Web Page
Learn how a hyperlink tag refers to a linked document.

Create hyperlinks with the anchor tag (<A>)

It's a container set that you close with the </A> tag.

Use the attribute (HREF) to include an anchor in your document:

<A HREF="linkDocument.html">Text that will serve as the hypertext link</A> Text following the link.

which displays as:

Text that will serve as the hypertext link Text following the link

This entry makes the phrase

Text that will serve as the hypertext link

the hyperlink to the document

linkDocument.html

Web pages are case-sensitive, i.e., if HREF refers to linux.html, then it won't link to Linux.html.
