A webpage is nothing without connections. In fact, its web because its connected just like a spider web. There are lots and lots of web pages and much more links to move from one page to another.
Think of a scenarion if we don’t have any links. then we either need to have all the names of different pages or the pages itself will go so long that you will go on scrolling and scrolling.
In a practical way its not possible at all to build a website without any links. We have different kind of websites with different matter in each of them. Even a single site is very varid in terms of content, and each type of content is kept in a different page. We constantly need to navigate between different pages to collect information we want.
Links take us to different pages from a single point and let us come back anytime we need.
Links are basically providing a third dimension to the web pages, ie the depth, we can go any deeper we want to in a web page.
HTML links are defined with the <a> tag. Its called the anchor tag
| Example
<a href=”http://www.w3schools.com”>This is a link</a> |
Note: The link address is provided as an attribute.
An anchor can be anything , a text, a letter, a paragraph, images, graphics, animations, depending upon our choice and use.
