#### 12.6.5 Links in HTML export

Internal links (see Internal links) will continue to work in HTML. This includes automatic links created by radio targets (see Radio targets). Links to external files will still work if the target file is on the same relative path as the published Org file. Links to other `.org` files will be translated into HTML links under the assumption that an HTML version also exists of the linked file, at the same relative path. ‘`id:`’ links can then be used to jump to specific entries across files. For information related to linking files while publishing them to a publishing directory see Publishing links.

If you want to specify attributes for links, you can do so using a special `#+ATTR_HTML` line to define attributes that will be added to the `<a>` or `<img>` tags. Here is an example that sets `title` and `style` attributes for a link:

    #+ATTR_HTML: :title The Org mode homepage :style color:red;
    [[http://orgmode.org]]
