1. If we click on hypertext link, we can go to another web page.

2. They are located as following: html→head→title→/title→/head→/html

3. absolute address is the whole specified address which brings us directly to the particular web page.

relative address is the address specified by indicating its distance from another address. so we have to go through base address to see the web page.

Hypertext links-A hypertext are words that are able to link the user to another website by simply clicking on the the highlghted link. It will move from one website to another by clicking with the mouse.

2.
head
title
/head
/title

3. Relative Address is when you can put the website in any machine and it will still be safe and everything will sta the same. However, absolute address is when you have to spcificly save the website in a memory.

1) Define hypertext links in your own words.
A: Hypertext links is a tag that links between the web sites so that we can move to another website by clicking the blue underlined word.

2) Where are the following tags positioned on an html page?

A: head - "head" comes after "html" and tags that are nested within the head tags (i.e. title) are not intended to be viewed on the page.
/head - the "end head tag" goes right before the "open body tag".
title./title - this tag contains the text that will be displayed in the title of the browser window. And this tag is unually nested withing the head tag.
3) What is the difference between a relative address and an absolute address?

A: Absolute Address : An explicit identification of a memory location, peripheral device, or location within a device.
Relative Address : A memory address that represents some distance from a starting point (base address), such as the first byte of a program or table. The absolute address is derived by adding it to the base address.

1. hypertext links- words that take you from one web page to another when you click them with your mouse.

2. head - tags that are within the head tags (like title) are not supposed to be viewed on the page
title /title - contains the text that will be displayed in the title of the browser window.
/head - "end head tag" goes right before the "open body tag"

3. relative address- makes it easy to drop your web site on any machine and the links will still behave properly
absolute address- the actual location of data in the storage medium

Hypertext Link- a link that allows you to view HTML pages.

The opening title tag goes above the close title tag.
The opening head tag goes above the close head tag
Sorry- I cannot leave those tags in this comment due to restrictions.

Absolute address- an address that does not require an external source to direct you to the address

Relative Address- an address that does not require you to specify the specific address

By the way, Mr. Redin, I do not think I fully understand what an Absolute address it and what a Relative address is. If you could, do you mind going over it again in class, or emailing me what they mean? Thanks. My email address is mikiphua@yahoo.com

1)Hypertext link: A text on a computer that are linked with other texts.

2)head tag - this tag contains information about the document, though it is not viewed on an html page.

title tags - this tag defines the title of a document, and it is viewed on the top title line of the browser window.

end head tag - this tag is not displayed, but it goes right before the "open body tag".

3)An absolute address shows the complete address (protocol://hostname/other_information), while a relative address gives partial path to a certain information.

1) Hypertext links is the text which leads to the other related links on demand.
2) It could be seen at the very top of the web pages which is colored blue.
3) An absolute address in computing is the precise indication of a memory location without the use of any intermediate reference. On the other hand, relative address within an array or other data structure object is an integer indicating the distance from the beginning of the object up until a given element or point, presumably within the same object.
