Hyperlinks in HTML
Hyperlinks allow users to navigate between web resources and are defined using the <a> anchor element. Hyperlinks are underlined, blue text that change the mouse cursor to a hand icon on hover. The href attribute specifies the URL of the destination resource, which can be a web page, image, email address or location within the same or different page using anchors. Browsers render hyperlinks distinctly from normal text to indicate they are clickable links.
