Links

Links are very important — they are what makes the web a web!

Anchor tag

To add a link, we need to use a simple element — <a> — "a" being the short form for "anchor". To make text within your paragraph into a link, follow these steps:

1. Choose some text. We chose the text "Mozilla Manifesto".
2. Wrap the text in an <a> element, like this: <a>Mozilla Manifesto</a>
3. Give the element an href attribute, like this: <a href="">Mozilla Manifesto</a>
4. Fill in the value of this attribute with the web address that you want the link to link to: <a href="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/">Mozilla Manifesto</a>
5. After making a link, click it to make sure it is working.

You might get unexpected results if you omit the https:// or http:// part, called the protocol, at the beginning of the web address.
