Can anyone explain to me how to use hyper links?

    I guess I'm a little confused by what you mean. Are you talking about anchor text? As in you write a post or whatever on your website and say something like "this is a great product" and you either want "click here" (where they can click on it and get to the product) or you want a phrase (like "great product") to be clickable?

    Is this what you mean?

    Sorry if I misunderstood!

        Let's say you have some text, like:

        This text here

        In a text editor - something like notepad, not a word processor - you want to wrap the A (for anchor) HTML tag around your text:

        Code:
         
        <A>This text here</A>
        Now, you simply have to tell the link where it needs to go. You do this with the HREF attribute. So inside of the opening A tag, you add the word HREF, followed by an = sign, and then the name of the site where you want to link - in quotes. It ends up looking like this.

        Code:
         
        <A HREF="http://www.whatever.com/">This text here</a>
        When someone clicks on that text in their web browser, they'll go to the HREF you listed - in this case, http://www.whatever.com/ - just like they had typed it in their browser's address bar.

        Is that what you needed to know?
