Free HTML Tutorial

Links to the World

     I want to make my own web page connect to other places! This is where the internet starts to get real fun, not to mention useful. One of the best HTML tricks is linking.

Link to a local page
Link to <a href="index.htm">
   Make My Own Web Page!</a>

Web page should look like this.

     This is your first link. This links to another page called index.htm. As you can see, the code includes a closing </a> code. Everything between the starting and closing codes are part of the link.
