Adding and Editing Links

To make a portion of your text into a link, you will need to place the text in between some tags, similar to how you would make text bold with the <strong> tags. Simply copy the text below and replace the "link text here" with the words that you would like to be a link, and the "http://domain.tld" with the location that you would like the link to go to.

<a href="http://domain.tld">link text here</a>

Make sure that you leave the quotes around the location (http://domain.tld in this case) and the closing tag or this link will not work correctly.

To make an image into a link, you can simply embed the <img src="images/filename.extension"> tag into the "link text here" section. an example is shown below.

<a href="http://domain.tld"><img src="images/filename.extension"></a>

With this example, the image filename.extension will show as a link, however it will have a small (about 2 pixels wide) border around it. To get rid of this border, you can add border="0" after the file name but before the closing > like the example below.

<a href="http://domain.tld"><img src="images/filename.extension" border="0"></a>
examples of image links with and without the border are shown below. The image on the left does not use the border="0" option while the image on the right does.
