A hyperlink gives you the ability to re-direct to another page visitors to your site. This can be achieved simply by clicking on a word or image.
The Anchor Tag
Hyperlinks are made up of an opening and closing anchor tag. Everything enclosed in the tag becomes part of the hyperlnk. The anchor tag has an attribute called href which stands for hyper-reference (I think. I really don't know but it sounded good to me.) A hyperlink looks like this; To find the person responsible for getting me to write this mess<a href="URL of site to be visited">click here</a> In this example the words click here would be the hyperlink because they are between the anchor tags. On a page they would look like this. To fnd person responsible for getting me to write this mess click here.
Link Colors
You may have seen on some pages that the links are a different color then the rest of the text. You can change the color of links by adding attributes in the opening body tag.
link=blue turns all links blue
vlink=red makes your visited links red
alink=orange makes a link turn orange while it is being clicked on
These colors are only examples. You can use whatever colors you like.
