Links and Images-Anchored
Links...
Without Links, the World
Wide Web wouldn't be a web at all!
To add a link... you will
use the <a href="location"> opening tag
and </a> closing tag.
Whatever appears between these two tags will
become underlined
and colored, and if you click on the underlined
text it will send the browser
to the location within the quotes.
Please replace ZooMom with
your membername, and my address with yours.
**Hint: Open WordPad, or
a word processing document- copy and paste
these codes, then change
them however you wish. Saves typing time.
Example of a link...
Visit ZooMom's!
Visit
<a href="http://www.oocities.org/EnchantedForest/Meadow/5581/">ZooMom's</a>!
Note: Although Links are usually used to send people to other web pages,
you may also use it to
send email to a specific address
by using a location of
mailto:user@host.
Example of a Mailto: Link...
Send email to ZooMom!
Send email to<a href="mailto:dale4cin@epix.net">ZooMom</a>!
In-line Images...
You may also add images
(pictures) to your web page,
as long as the image is
in the .gif or .jpg (or .jpeg) file formats.
You will not be able to
use .bmp format files!
Combining Links
and Images...
Many times you may want to have an image that is linked,
so that if someone clicks
the image, the
person will be taken to
another page.
This is rather simple-
you just need to place the IMG tag
within these brackets <
>.
Another
Hint...
When
you see a homepage you like,
go
to the "view" menu and view the document source;
this
will show you the html used for a certain effect.
You will see that the little
button, when clicked on,
will take you back to my
main help guide.
That is an example of linking
an image to another page.
