Link to index page of website
anchor, href, html, hyperlink
Solution
You can just do this:
<a href="/">Home</a>
Any `href` preceded by a slash is relative the root directory.
It should be noted that when viewing a webpage from a local hard drive in a browser, this will cause the link not to function.
Problem
Is there a way to link to the index page of a website without specifying the name of the index page or the full website URL? I have this: ``` <a href="index.htm">Home</a> ``` But when I click the link, my address bar shows: ``` mydomain.com/index.html ``` I would like it to show: ``` mydomain.com ``` Can I do that without putting the full URL (`mydomain.com`) in the `href`? If so, how? For future viewers, I also found this question helpful.
