CREATING LINKS
Creating links in HTML is easy.
Here is the basic format for a link:
- Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.societasviaromana.org/">Go to SocietasViaRomana</a>
1) Open up the document you created in LESSON 3 in Notepad.
2) After your last sentence within the body tags (i.e. I am a member of <u>SocietasViaRomana</u>.), type two break tags.
3) Then type the link above. Notepad should look like this:
- Code: Select all
<html>
<head>
<title>
SocietasViaRomana
</title>
</head>
<body>
<b>Hello</b> my name <i>is</i> Lucius.
<br>
I am a member of <u>SocietasViaRomana</u>.
<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.societasviaromana.org/">Go to SocietasViaRomana</a>
</body>
</html>
4) Save this page and view it according to the instructions in Step 6 of LESSON 1.
Note: If you want the link to open in a blank browser window, you need to add a target attribute. Like this:
- Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.societasviaromana.org/" target="_blank">Go to SocietasViaRomana</a>
