a href = ... class=...

[sarah Marsh]

Hello:
Could you point out a website talking about <a href = ... class=... >?
I don't understand the class part.
Thanks!

read up on CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).
They define (mainly) rendering and formating styles.

[Winston Smith]

Assume the following HTML:

<A href="http://www.javaranch.com" class="blue">The Ranch</A>

"class" refers to the CSS label (which is contained either in the page, or in a seperate CSS file (styles.css).
So, if we have a seperate file called styles.css, we would define the following:

 
.blue {
   font: 10px Arial blue;
}

So essentially, "The Ranch" will be 10px, Arial, and the color blue. There are several different ways to accomplish such formatting. This one uses an external style sheet.
