Question

Let’s say I have:

var url="http://www.google.html";

how do I put the URL variable value as the href value of a specific anchor tag in the page?
I know about str.link() but how can I use that with a specific element? And can I use link*( to build anchors of images? That didn’t seem to work for me. Thanks for the help

Answer 1

For anchor elements:

<a id="myAnchor">link me!</a>

...

<script type="text/javascript">
var url = "http://www.google.html";  // .html is the new .com
var myAnchor = document.getElementById('myAnchor');
myAnchor.href = url;
</script>
