A Little Link

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. HyperText is the original purpose of the internet. The idea was for scientists to have a way to share papers, and link specific parts of specific papers to other parts of other papers, even if those papers were on another computer on another campus. So the link tag is probably the most important tag to know about, and one that has endless uses.

Goal

Make a paragraph and include a link to some other page on the internet.

Clues

You will need these tags:

<a href="http://www...">text to click</a>

A link has three parts:

• We put the href attribute inside the opening tag to tell us where the text we are about to type is going to link to.
• The a tag opens and closes around the text you want a person to click.

Hey there,  <a href="www.example.com">Check this cool link out</a>!

Gives us:

Hey there, check this cool link out!
