To create a hyperlink in HTML, you need an anchor tab followed by a href, like so:
<a href=”https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML”>MDN Web Docs</a>
That will look like MDN Web Docs (in blue or purple and underlined) on your website. When someone clicks on it, it will redirect your page to the linked website.
If you want to open a new tab to the new website you can add a target=”_blank” like so:
<a href=”https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML” target=”_blank”>MDN Web Docs</a>
To create a hyperlink in your own HTML file, in Visual Studio Code, click on New File
A empty block will pop up for you to name your new file. We will name it: blog.html.
It will open up a new page in VS Code to write your new code on.
If you don’t have a link yet, or you want your page to scroll back up to the top, just write a # symbol in it. Like so:
<a href=”#”>No link. Only a place holder.</a>
