    What is the correct HTML for creating a hyperlink?

    • A url="http://www.w3schools.com">W3Schools.com

    • A href="http://www.w3schools.com">W3Schools

    • A name="http://www.w3schools.com">W3Schools.com

    Correct Answer
    A. A href="http://www.w3schools.com">W3Schools
    Explanation
    The correct HTML for creating a hyperlink is "a href="http://www.w3schools.com">W3Schools". This is because the "a" element is used to create a hyperlink, and the "href" attribute specifies the URL that the hyperlink should point to. In this case, the URL is "http://www.w3schools.com", and the text that will be displayed as the hyperlink is "W3Schools".
