<p>External link syntax</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>==External link syntax==<br /> <br /> We generally like to give the title of our external links, using the syntax &lt;nowiki&gt;'[URL title]'&lt;/nowiki&gt;, so instead of:<br /> <br /> [http://ana-3.lcs.mit.edu/~jnc/tech/DECIndicatorPanels.html]<br /> <br /> one sees this:<br /> <br /> [http://ana-3.lcs.mit.edu/~jnc/tech/DECIndicatorPanels.html Digital Equipment Corporation Indicator Panels]<br /> <br /> Much nicer for our readers! The title is formally given inside &lt;title&gt; tags in the HTML of the page, and displayed by the browser (often in the window title bar, but exactly how will depend on the browser and OS).
