Link

The link element tells a browser about other resources that the page may need to load. Typically, these are the CSS or “style sheets” which dictate how a page will appear in a browser.

We will not use this element for the first few weeks, but will rely upon it for the remainder of the semester after we start with CSS.

NOTE: This element only requires an opening tag, as all information for the element is contained as attributes within the opening tag. This is another example of an “empty element.”
