Links

To create a link to another Web page, use the anchor tag <a> with the attribute href.

For example, this code creates a link to a file named testfile.html:
<a href="testfile.html">test</a>
 The link is displayed like this: test

The value of the href attribute is interpreted as a uniform resource locator (URL). In this example, the URL consists of a relative address; since only the file name is specified, the target file is assumed to be located in the same directory as the current file.
