HTML Link Editor
Use the following HTML link editor to create links to other web pages. In HTML, links are created using the <a>
tag. The link editor below automatically creates this tag when you use it to create a link.
Also see the HTML Link Generator.
Understanding the Toolbar
If you have trouble understanding the buttons on the toolbar, just hover over the button - a tooltip will pop up.
In case you don't see the tooltip, here's what the icons stand for (in order of the icons):
- Link
Creates a hyperlink to a URL, email address, or an anchor within the same page. - Unlink
Unlinks an existing link. Simply select an existing link and click this button. - Anchor
This enables you to link to another part of the same web page. It requires the following steps.- Place the cursor at the point in the web page that you'd like the anchor (i.e. the point to where the browser will jump to after the user clicks a link)
- Click the "Anchor" button
- Create a name for the anchor (i.e. "anchor1" or preferrably, something more descriptive)
- Highlight some text at another point in the document (usually prior to the anchor)
- Click the "Link" button
- Set the "Link Type" to "Link to anchor in the text"
- Use the drop down menu to select the name of your anchor (eg, "anchor1")
- Source Code
Displays the HTML code created by the generator.
