In HTML, an attribute is part of an HTML element.
See also Attribute–value pair.
Examples
The a element requires an attribute named href, which specifies what the link is linking to.
The attribute looks like this:
href="value"
Where "value" is a URL, or a path to a resource.
In this example, the value of the attribute is a fully-qualified URL for Wikipedia:
<a href="http://wikipedia.org">Wikipedia</a>
In this example, the value of the attribute is another web page on the same website.
<a href="../another-page.html">Another web page</a>
