How do i make a Hyperlink? PDF Print E-mail
A hyperlink is the largest tool on a website, linking to pwerfull information!

There are generally two types of hyperlinks known as internal and external links. Ofcourse internal links would be pages on your own website and external links link to pages on another website, most likely you would link to the index page on an external site commonly termed a Homepage..

A typical hyperlink would look like this...
http://www.anysiteonline.co.uk

To make an internal link to a file on your website you can drop the domain name code preffix, (and have your pages reload a little bit quicker!!.)

The code looks simply like this...
/yourfile.html

You can also link to files in a seperate folder on your site useing a forward slash

If the file is in a seperate folder add this forward slash...
/folder/yourfile.html

To make an internal link to a file outside of the folder in which the file your hyperlink is based you can specify this using 2 dots and then the forward slash (../) (again your page will reload a bit quicker)

If you are linking from a file based in a folder use...
../yourfile.html
