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>.

Sometimes it's beneficial to have hyperlinks open a new tab or window. The HTML code for opening the link in another tab looks like this: <nowiki><a href="URL of target site" target="_blank">Anchor text</a></nowiki> and displays as this: [http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp Anchor text]. | |||
The HTML code for opening the link in another window looks like this: <nowiki><a href="URL of target site" target="_blank">Anchor Text</a> or <a href="URL of target site" target="new">Anchor Text</a></nowiki> and displays as this: [http://dummies.bloggertipsandtricks.com/2006/03/how-to-make-clickable-link.html Anchor Text] | |||
