Hyperlinks let us refer to other files or pages on the Internet. We do this by referring to the URL of the page where we want to allow our viewers to go.
For instance here is a link to R. Bruce Wagner Elementary School, and here is a link to an image of Mr. Young.
The HTML code for the links above are written like this:
<p>For instance here is a link to <a href="http://www.polk-fl.net/rbw/">R.
Bruce
Wagner Elementary School</a>, and here is a link to an image of <a
href="http://www.polk-fl.net/rbw/images/teachers/young%7Emr._fac.jpg">Mr.
Young.</a> </p>
The
other thning that students asked me was how to include images in their pages.
This is done by adding the <img> tag with the Source attribute
which
refers to the web address of the image you want. The code for adding
this image is:
<img src="http://www.tampabaycreative.com/teacher_1.jpg" align="left">
The align = "left" forces the image to stay to the left of the text.
Whereby an image is just a file that is shown within our webpage, we can also have a background image which will repeat throughout the page. We create this be altering the body tag to include the background attribute:
<body background="http://www.tampabaycreative.com/tampabaycreative/rocks.jpg">
I would like to have shown you more in the brief time we worked otgether; however, you should now have a basic understanding of how to write your own web pages: It has been an absolute pleasure woking with each of you and I appreciate the great work and the respect that you have exhibited. Please keep in touch with me whenever you can.
