    Study Notes

    • Hyperlinks, commonly known as links, connect to other web pages.
    • They can be text, images, or any other HTML element.

    • The href attribute specifies the URL where the user will be redirected.
    • The "Visit Youtube" text is the displayed text of the link.

    Relative URLs

    • C:\Users\heisenberg\Desktop\page2.html is an absolute URL, which should be avoided for better code reusability.
    • The target attribute with a value of _blank opens the linked URL in a new tab.
