Inserting links

Elementary information required

[Keith]

I have tried inserting a few links into the html part of my home page but all the html shows through onto the viewing page. What am I doing wrong? Do be gentle with me - I'm new!

Hi Keith, Welcome to WebmasterWorld.

Can you show us a few lines of the code you used?

[claus]

generally a link will have this format:

<a href="http://www.example.com/">Example site</a>

- what is between =" and "> is the link as seen in the browsers address bar.

- what is between "> and </a> is the tekst you should see on your page.

The example link above should look and work like this on your page when you view it in a browser:

Example site [example.com]

Hope this helps.
