Welcome to your 8th HTML tutorial, in this tutorial we're going to finish up with talking about links. We need to cover two last things;
1. How to make a link to e-mail address
2. How to make something called tooltips, which is when you hover over a link a box pops up, showing tips of what the link is or anything pertaining to the link.
First, let's learn how to create a link to an e-mail address and this maybe useful on the "Contact Us" page.
Let's go ahead and create a link in our text editor, that says "Email TopCrix" that will be the text on the webpage. Now, what we need to do is to add the a or anchor tag, the href and the e-mail address but you don't just type the email address, we need to add emailto: before the email address
As illustrated below
NOTE: for you to practice this, you need to preview through your browser because the text editor will only show you error.
The last thing I want to teach you is how to create one of those tooltips.
Let's create a basic link to Google. First of all use 2 line breaks <br><br> at the close tag </a> in other to shift the Google link to the next line (away from email link).
As illustrated below
But I think it will be a good idea if we hover over it a box pops up telling you some information about Google. Let's go ahead and learn how to do that.
You know I said tags need some attributes to know more information about that tag, not only does the a tag have the href attribute but also has a title attribute, if we take and set it equals to "Feeling Lucky"
As illustrated below
This is one of the tutorials we need to practice on a PC because we need to use mouse cursor to hover over it in other to see the function of this attribute but I guess you get the logic, in case you come across such in your text editor, just know it's the tooltip.
You can put more than one attributes inside a tag, just make sure they are not touching each other and has the same formula;
The attribute name e.g title
And set it equal to whatever you want
You now know everything about the link tags. See you in the next tutorial.
