Add HTML : Creating hyperlink

Want to know how to create hyperlink in your webcreator ?

1. What is hyperlink ?
Hyperlink is an image or portion of text on a Web page that is linked to another Web page, either on the same site or in another Web site. Clicking on the link will take the user to another Web page, or to another place on the same page. Words or phrases which serve as links are underlined, or appear in a different color, or both. Images that serve as links have a border around them, or they change the cursor to a little hand as it passes over them.

HTML Anchor Tag :

<A HREF="URL">Name/Text</A> (not case sensitive)

2. To hyperlink to Website / page that opens in New Browser window
Sometimes we want our visitors to open links in a new browser window. The purpose of this is to allow visitors to visit other pages or websites without actually leaving yours. If you have a pop up blocker enabled, you should turn it off because if the pop up blocker thinks that the new window is a pop up, it will block it and the new browser window would not open. There are issues to consider. If your web pages open up too many different web browser windows, it may be confusing to the viewer which one they started with. Use this feature when it makes the most sense for the content.

HTML Anchor Tag :

<A HREF ="URL" target="_blank">Name/Text</A> (not case sensitive)

3. What is HREF ?
The HREF attribute indicates either the URL of the destination page or another anchor in the same document. If the HREF attribute is present the text between the opening and closing elements is designated as a hyperlink, which when "clicked" by the user, will invoke the web page defined by the URL or will go to the appropriate document anchor.

1) HTML tag :

<A HREF="http://www.eonenet.com"> Click Here </A>
