hi there,

This exercise is trying to explain how to tell the browser to open the link in the same tab.
(instead of opening a new tab).
This is done with the target attribute (you set it to value “_blank” and then the browser will know that you want to open the new link in the same tab).

Attributes are all written the same way (pretty much) and so if you know how to write one, you know how to write all of them.

href is an attribute of the anchor element
target is just like it
so write it next to the href.

Here’s a post I wrote also to discuss more if you need more information
