This must be in quotation marks and be preceded by an equals sign, e.g. <a href=" Vista</a> The browser will display the text as a link by underlining the text. The cursor will change to a hand when it is over the reference. Clicking on the link will take the user to the new page. Headings on web pages are never underlined in case they are confused with hyperlinks.
