I’m learning web development and I’ve encountered another beginner challenge, I want to make the header text of my website, clickable, so that it also redirects me to the homepage, how could I achieve this?, may you help me please?.

The homepage text is "Cookieland" and I want it to be clickable so that it redirects me to "index.html" homepage, I’ve tried "href" but I couldn’t find a way to make it look like a normal text and not a link.

Here is my code:

h1 {
  font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
  font-size: 50px;
  color: #925800;
  text-align: center;
  background-color: #d8ad6a;
  height: 105px;
  padding-top: 30px;
  margin: -25px;
}

body {
  background-color: #eeeeee;
  overflow-x: hidden;
  margin: 0px;
}


/* Styling for the search container */

.search-container {
  text-align: center;
  padding: 0px;
  margin: -20px;
  background-color: #d8ad6a;
  height: 55px;
}


/* Styling for the search input */

.search-input {
  padding: 10px;
  border-radius: 20px;
  border: 2px solid #ccc;
  width: 500px;
  margin-left: 80px;
}


/* Styling for the search button */

.search-button {
  padding: 10px 20px;
  border-radius: 20px;
  border: 2px solid #ccc;
  background-color: #f0f0f0;
  color: #333;
  cursor: pointer;
  transition: background-color 0.3s;
}


/* Styling for the search button on hover */

.search-button:hover {
  background-color: #e0e0e0;
}


/* Styling for the navigation bar */

h1 {
  text-align: center;
}

.navbar ul {
  list-style-type: none;
  background-color: #d8ad6a;
  padding: 0px;
  margin: 0px;
  overflow: hidden;
  text-align: center;
}

.navbar a {
  color: white;
  text-decoration: none;
  padding: 15px;
  display: block;
  text-align: center;
}

.navbar a:hover {
  background-color: #f2e596;
}

.navbar li {
  display: inline-block;
}

.navbar {
  margin-top: 20px;
}

  1. This will turn your header into a link that will redirect to index.html

    <a href='./index.html'><h1 id="Cookieland">Cookieland</h1></a>
    

    If you don’t want it to look like a link, you can use this CSS here:

    .Cookieland{ 
          text-decoration: none;
          cursor: pointer;
    }
    

    This will remove the link’s underline and also make it so your cursor turns into a pointer when hovering over the link.

  2. This link will take you from Cookieland page to the home page

    <a id="GoToTheHomePage" href='./index.html'><h1>Go to the home page</h1></a>

    in order that it will not look like a link in your css file write:

    #GoToTheHomePage{ cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;}
