Building links between pages in HTML

To link to another document, use:

    <a href="URL">text</a>

This displays the given text, with a link to the given URL.

For example, if you place this HTML on your page:

    <a href="http://www.nmt.edu/">New Mexico Tech Homepage</a>

The browser will display the text ``New Mexico Tech Homepage'' and that text will be a link to the NMT homepage at http://www.nmt.edu/.
