Basic HTML note to myself

I learned HTML a looong time back as a hobby. I think I was in high school and during summer break I thought it'd be fun to learn HTML from a book my cousin had. It did turn out to be fun and I've been thankful ever since for that little project of mine. I've tweaked the frame and header and a lot of settings on my other blog using some html basics that I picked up.

But I do use one trick every time I post a link that I keep forgetting and have to look up every time. I thought it'd be good if I put a note here in this blog so I don't have to look it up every time. It is this:

To include a link so that if a person does open the link it opens it in a new tab/window (instead of in the same one my blog post is in) do this:

open-angle-brace a href="http-address-you-want-to-link-to" target=blank close-angle-brace Some text saying what the link is open-angle-brace /a close-angle-brace

Simple..
