How To Creating A Link To Another Site
To create a site map or index or to make your website more interesting or add credibility by calling up specific sources or even to add compatible partners, you need to know how to link your webpages together. The following is the basic link command:
<a href="URLhere">YOUR TEXT OR IMAGE HERE</a>
Any text or image command in between these tags will be linked to the URL that you put in between the quotation marks. Make sure when you put the URL you have the complete URL address including the http://www.the_rest_of_the_address.com/whatever_is_needed in between the quotes. Also, make sure you close the link promptly at the end of the text or image or else everything after this command will be linked to that URL.
If you are merely linking within your own site, you do not need to include the full URL.
If you are using an HTML 4.0 or earlier version, you can use target commands to direct if you want the URL to pop up in another browser or stay in the same one or if you are in a frame to make the other site go into a specific frame.
You can make the link pop up in a new browser by adding a target line in the tag. It would look like this:
<a href="URLhere" ></a>
That _blank line tells the browser to make that link appear in a new browser. Other targets include _parent, _self, _top. When using a frame to make a link appear in another part of the frame you target _framename.
However, if your site is in XHTML, the target command does not work.
