Inserting links and formatting text in HTML

   In this lesson , we are going to discuss:

  •  To create a link and name it in our html file.
  • To format text like inserting new line.
  • To bold a certain text.
  • To show text in italic.

Creating links:

To embed links in our program we will use the tag <a href> </a>.

<a  is the anchor tag and href is its attribute. So we write <a href> 

Now to insert link we may write <a href  "http://www.google.com>Go to google</a>

For example:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Inserting link</title>

</head>

<body>

<a href = http://www.google.com>Go to google</a>

</body>

</html>

Insert new line:

Generally html ignore the white spaces then here is way is to insert a new line your paragraph.

You need to use the tag <br> or <BR /> means the break tag.

For example:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head>
<title>Inserting new line</title>
</head>
<body>
<H2>An article on html</H2>
HTML Article is a HTML semantic element. <br>It is most commonly used to contain information that may be distributed independently from the rest of the site or application it appears in.
</body>
</html>


Formatting text:

In order to use bold and italic fonts we need these tags:
  • <strong></strong>  or <b></b>:To bold the characters
  • <em></em>: This is emphasize tag to use italic fonts.
  • <small></small> : To make text smaller.
  • <big></big> : To make text bigger.

For example:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head>
<title>Inserting new line</title>
</head>
<body>
<H2>An article on html</H2>
HTML Article is a <strong><big>HTML</big></strong> semantic element.It is most commonly used to contain <small><em>information</em></small> that may be distributed independently from the rest of the site or application it appears in.
</body>
</html>

Note: Make sure to use HTML tags in correct order.

Line separator:

You may also put a horizontal line separator using <hr> tag, which stands for horizontal. As shown in the simple example below: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Inserting images</title>
</head>
<body>
<H1>What is html</H1>
