How do you create a hyperlink?

As well as a normal hyperlink, how do I make a hyperlink without using the website name. For example what if I wanted to make a hyperlink out of the word "here"?

  • It depends on the context.

    In a forum you use BBC and it looks like this:

    [url=http://urlhere.com/]Your Text Here[/url]

    When using html code, you type:

    <a href="http://urlhere.com/%22%3EYour Text Here</a>

    If you are referring to posting here (on yahoo answers) using hyperlinks, you need to be level 2 or higher. The link will automatically turn into a hyperlink.

  • A hyperlink (or link) is a word, group of words, or image that you can click on to jump to a new document or a new section within the current document. When you move the cursor over a link in a Web page, the arrow will turn into a little hand. Links are specified in HTML using the <a> tag.

    Just another link:

    <a href="http://www.link.com/%22%3EText%3C/a%3E

    Link will open in the new tab or window:

    <a href="http://www.link.com/%22 target="_blank">Text</a>

    A named anchor inside an HTML document:

    <a name="label">Text</a>

    <a href="#label">Text</a>

  • Dependent on the site you are embedding the hyperlink..

    =

    In Yahoo Answers, as a Level 2, you just have to enter the hyperlink

    - for example: http://answers.yahoo.com/

    -

    Specify the site you wish to embed the hyperlink.
