after source you just need to put "</a>" (no quotation marks). And take out the second url.

try it again.
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp

you are using the code after the wording:"The Anchor Tag and the Href Attribute

HTML uses the (anchor) tag to create a link to another document.

An anchor can point to any resource on the Web: an HTML page, an image, a sound file, a movie, etc.

The syntax of creating an anchor: "

the first code. it works for me.

lol I dont know what you are doing but...

you are just putting the url between the " ". do not erase the " "

erase (text to be displayed) and just put source there. do not erase any other the other coding.

interesting thing i found out about elvis a while back - his natural hair color was blonde.

actually, it was light brown. but he dyed his hair, eyelashes, and eye brows black. dying his eye lashes is what caused his eyes to get infected.

ah, okay. i saw a photo and the caption said "a blonder elvis, yadda yadda"

my parents are elvis freaks as well. my dad said he will not die as he wishes since he never met him.

its actually pretty dissapointing. you have access to see about 4 rooms, and the house is really small and tacky. plus its like 50 bucks!

Yeah! But I got mine for 75. It's this gigantic black book with blue sequins on the front that spell out, "The King."

I got mine from Borders.

Really? I think auctioning off personal items seems a bit creepy. But this is just an instrument belonging to one of the most well-known singers in American history. Sort of makes sense to me that people would want it.

Can't they just leave it at Graceland? Some things are just cooler when left for the public to see, not in some rich guys house. :(

Are you referring to the alleged "The only thing Negroes can do for me is shine my shoes and buy my records" comment? Never happened. It was just a stupid rumor.
