HTML links

HTML links

HTML links, also known as hyperlinks, are used to navigate between web pages or different parts of the same page. Links are created using the <a> tag, which stands for "anchor".

The <a> tag can have couple of attributer:

  • href attribute - it is an required attribute which specifies the URL or destination of the link.
  • target attribute - can also be used to specify where the linked page should open. By default, linked pages will open in the same browser window, but adding target="_blank" will open the link in a new tab or window.

Example:

1<a href="https://www.example.com" target="_blank">Visit Example.com</a>
