Linking to Another File

To create a link to another file, for example more_stuff.html, you would add the following line to your HTML file:


   <href="more_stuff.html"><This leads to more stuff.</a>

Notice that there are two parts to this, the <a href=> part, which gives the file name, and the </a> part. These signify the beginning and the end of the actual hypertext link. Between those two tags, you write the text that you want to appear highlighted on the screen. The file name should always have quotation marks around it, and should always end with .html (or .htm as explained earlier).
