Using this tag is easier than manually creating the HTML version and it will insert any additional parameters necessary to track the link if the page is used in an email, as well as adding the necessary JavaScript for a page transition if you are using an AJAX Menu.

Basic Link Example
Using the command below will produce this html code:
Link To This Page Link Including Parameters Example
You can pass parameters such as www.yoursite.com?myparam=id by using the third section of the LINK Command.
On the example below we are passing "hello=world". This will pass a sting called hello with a value of world to the page with Object ID of 1054. It will also include the title of Link To This Page to the href link.
This is how it will look when viewed as HTML
<a href="https://www.ultimatedb.net/commands/link?hello=world" title="https://www.ultimatedb.net/commands/link?hello=world" >Link To This Page</a>
