The following is the HTML coding snippet used for my links that I updated our site. You can substitute the URLs and Names of the URLs that you want to make the links using the HTML5 Advanced in the Site Builder for the page you want to change in the body of the page where you need the links.


<h2>Useful links.</h2>
<ul><b>
<li>
<a href="http://www.fema.org/">Visit FEMA</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.seminolecountyfl.gov/dps/">Seminole County DPS</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.seminolecountyfl.gov/dps/ems/">EMS Fire Rescue</a>
</li>
<li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.ready.gov/">Ready.gov Home Page</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.floridadisaster.org/index.asp">Florida Disaster Home Page</a>
</li>

<a href="www.propacusa.com/">Pro Pac Disaster Supplies website</a>
</li>

Thanks for sharing. This code is not simply linking text. This code is used to create an HTML navigation menu instead of a simple text link.

No problem at all. You can always post your own topic in the HTML snippets category as well, if you have other things people may find useful.

This is an example of how to add HTML coding to a page with an imbedded link to a text work in the page:

 

<h2>There is a link at the bottom of the page! It goes to a particular text</h2>

<p>In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.</p>

<p><a id="Whenever">"Whenever</a> you feel like criticizing any one," he told me, "just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had."</p>

<p>He didn't say any more, but we've always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that. Etc...Reserving judgments is a matter of infinite hope</p>

<a href="#Whenever">Go to Whenever</a>

</body>

I'm using the online version of Sitebuilder. How do I add or edit a hyperlink in a page's text?

In addition, how can I access my list of files relevant to the site?

Which site? Have you checked to see if your link colors are set to the same as the background?

If you are wanting to create a text link, these are the steps. But if you are wanting to create a different kind of link, let us know.
