LINKING WEB PAGES
A website is a collection of web pages which are interlinked with each other and contain related
information. These web pages are linked with the help of a feature of HTML called hyperlink. A hyperlink
is generally an underlined text which takes you to another web page when clicked. Generally, hyperlinks
are seen in blue colour. Images can also be used as hyperlink. When the mouse is hovered over it, the
mouse pointer changes to a hand shape. When a hyperlink is clicked, its colour changes to purple.
HTML5 allows us to create two types of linking which are:
Interlinking: The process of linking a particular section of the same web page is called interlinking.
In this case, the hyperlink and the linked section appears on the same web page. Hence, interlinking
is also known as internal linking.
Intralinking: The process of linking a web page to another web page of the same website or another
website is called intralinking. It is also known as external linking.
Anchor Tag
Anchor tag is used for creating hyperlinks in HTML web pages. It is a container tag and used as <A>
Hyperlink Text </A>. Where, Hyperlink Text is a text or an image.
The <A> tag has the following attributes:
HREF: This attribute stands for Hypertext Reference. It takes the URL of the web page which we
want to link when we create external linking.
TARGET: This attribute is used to specify the place in which the linked web page will open. It takes
any one of the following four values:
_blank: Opens the linked web page in a new window or tab of the web browser.
_parent: Opens the linked web page in a parent window or tab of the web browser.
_self: Opens the linked web page in current window or tab.
_top: Opens the linked web page in the window that is on top in all the windows.
External web pages can be linked using HREF attribute of the anchor tag. The HREF attribute takes the
URL of the web page in double quotes. The syntax to create a hyperlink is:
<A HREF = "URL of Web Page" TARGET="_blank"> Link Text </A>
