What is a Link?

     A link can be text or an object which when clicked on will direct the Browser to an item. It could be to a different page or even a certain point on the present page also to images and files. The link may contain the parameters for how a browser opens the link ie: open a new window in the Browser to display the link. Remember to be careful with spelling and letter case.
