7. Open the Target menu and choose _self.
This option determines where the linked file will open:
• _blank opens every linked file in a new, unnamed browser window.
• new creates a new browser window with the name “_new”. Every link assigned
the _new target will open in that same _new browser window.
• _ parent is relevant if a page includes nested frames; this option opens the link in
the frame or window that contains the frame with the link.
• _self opens the link in the same frame or browser window as the link. This is the
default behavior if you do not choose an option in the Target menu.
• _top opens the link in the same browser window, regardless of frames.

A Web page is basically a page full of code. A browser reads the code to determine how
to treat various elements of the page. HTML code largely revolves around tags, which
tell a browser how to interpret specific objects on the page.

A hyperlink is identified by the a element, which starts with the opening <a> tag;
the link destination and target are defined as attributes of that tag (href="index.html"
target="self"). After the link text, the closing tag (</a>) identifies the end of the link.

The selected text
is now a link.

In the code view, the link text
is surrounded by opening
and closing <a> tags, which
identify the text as a link.

The link destination now
appears in the Link field
of the Properties panel.
