I wanted to do a refresher course on HTML and went to w3schools. It talked about the different tags in the head of the document. One of them was the base tag.
Their (w3schools) definition is as follows - The <base> tag specifies a default address or a default target for all links on a page.
their example:
<head>
<base href=“http://www.w3schools.com/images/” />
<base target="_blank" />
</head>
I have built around 15 websites and read a bunch of web dev books. I have never heard of or used the base tag before. I also don’t understand what is is based on the w3 definition. Can some one please give me a simple definition?
Thanks,
