Linking to a local Document

The simplest hyperlink jumps to a different document in the same folder or directory on the same computer.
Using Notepad create two HTM files in the same directory, one named file1.htm and the other file2.htm

To enable the user to jump from one document to another an anchor tag is required in file1.htm:

<AHREF="file2.htm">Highlighted text to appear</A>

file1.htm

<HTML>
<HEAD>

	<TITLE>Simple HTML Document with local links</TITLE>
	
</HEAD>
	
<BODY>
			
You can try out my hyperlink by <A HREF="file2.htm">clicking here...</A>
	
</BODY>

</HTML>

file2.htm

<HTML>
<HEAD>

	<TITLE>Target HTML Document</TITLE>
	
</HEAD>
	
<BODY>
			
This is my First ever HYPERLINK!
	
</BODY>

</HTML>
