Convert Text to HTML Link | URL to HTML Hyperlink

If you have a text list of URLs, you can automatically convert those URLs to HTML hyperlinks using this online tool.

HTML Links or HTML <a> Tag

HTML links are elements that allow you to navigate between different pages on the web, as well as to other resources, such as images, documents, and other media files. The link element is represented by the <a> tag in HTML.

HTML links are clickable elements on a web page that take the user to another web page, a specific location within the same web page, or even to a different section within the same web page. They are a fundamental part of the web and allow users to navigate between different websites and pages.

To create an HTML link, you need to use the anchor tag, which is written as <a>. The basic structure of an HTML link is as follows:

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

Here, the "href" attribute is used to specify the destination URL, which is the web page or file that the link points to. The "Link text" is the text that the user clicks on to follow the link.

For example, the following HTML code creates a link to the OnlineWebToolKit homepage:

<a href="https://www.onlinewebtoolkit.org/">Visit OnlineWebToolKit</a>

When the user clicks on the link, it will take them to the OnlineWebToolKit homepage.

You can also use relative URLs to create links to other pages within your own website. For example:

<a href="about.html">About Us</a>

In this example, the "about.html" file is located in the same directory as the current web page. When the user clicks on the link, it will take them to the "about.html" page.

You can also use anchor tags to create links to specific locations within a web page. This is called an anchor link. For example:

<a href="#section1">Jump to Section 1</a>...<h2 id="section1">Section 1</h2> 

In this example, the link text "Jump to Section 1" will take the user to the section with the "id" attribute of "section1" within the same web page.

This creates a link that opens the website at "https://www.example.com" in a new window when you click on it.

HTML Links - The target Attribute

By default, the linked page will be displayed in the current browser window. To change this, you must specify another target for the link.

The target attribute specifies where to open the linked document.

The target attribute can have one of the following values:

• _self - Default. Opens the document in the same window/tab as it was clicked
• _blank - Opens the document in a new window or tab
• _parent - Opens the document in the parent frame
• _top - Opens the document in the full body of the window

The href attribute is used to specify the URL that the link should point to. You can also add other attributes to customize the link's behavior, such as target, which determines how the link should be opened (in a new window, for example). Here is an example:

<a href="https://www.onlinewebtoolkit.com" target="_blank">Click here</a>

HTML Links - Use an Image as a Link

To use an image as a link, just put the <img> tag inside the <a> tag:

<a href="index.htm"> <img src="image1.jpg" alt="OnlineWebToolKit Tools" style="width:60px;height:60px;"> </a>

Link to an Email Address

Use mailto: inside the href attribute to create a link that opens the user's email program (to let them send a new email): Example

<a href="mailto:[email protected]">Send email</a>

Button as a Link

To use an HTML button as a link, you have to add some JavaScript code.

JavaScript allows you to specify what happens at certain events, such as a click of a button: Example

<button onclick="document.location='index.php'">OnlineWebToolKit Tools</button>
