Example: To link to a page about linking, I would use this code <nowiki><a href="http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp#gsc.tab=0">Links</a></nowiki>. It would then appear as: [http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp#gsc.tab=0 Links]. This HTML code will work on websites that support HTML coding. It's important to remember that various websites will have their own method of adding hypertext to a post. For example, this wiki does not use the HTML code shown above. Instead, hypertext is shown by placing a url in standard brackets and then simply typing the word you wish to display. It looks like this: <nowiki>[http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]</nowiki> and displays as this: [http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]. | Example: To link to a page about linking, I would use this code <nowiki><a href="http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp#gsc.tab=0">Links</a></nowiki>.

Many blog sites don't require users to write HTML code. These sites offer a method of linking with the click of a button. This button is most often a graphic representing a chain linked together.[[File:Link.jpg|thumb|Link button]] | Many blog sites don't require users to write HTML code.

To use this button, simply highlight the text you wish to link, click the link graphic and insert a url. If you want to remove a link from a word or set of words, highlight the text and click the broken chain graphic.
