Can you provide us the code?

ehm ... usually <a href > does that. but when you do that, and you want your site online, you'll have to put those files somewhere online.

You can try the BBCODE or the AHREF. See some of my examples [URL=][/URL]
<a href=""></a> Hope it will work.

I am having set of video files more than 60 in my local drive

local drive??!!!

I like to create hyper link for all those video files in html,

is your html file is on your local drive too???

you can easily do that with a href

but i am afraid you have to copy all the videos in same drive with same folder where the html file is, otherwise, lets say,

your html file is on E:\website\www\mywebsite.html

and your video files are on D:\Animation\movie set

here is your html code for hyper link:

<html>
<head>
<title> my video list</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="D:\Animation\movie set\1.mp4"> click here to show or download video no 1</a>
<a href="D:\Animation\movie set\2.mp4"> click here to show or download video no 2</a>
    //and so on.....
</body>
</html>

you just have to put the correct directory link in the a href

OR,

if you have both videos and the html file on the same drive. here is an example:

your html file is on E:\website\www\mywebsite.html

and your video files are on E:\website\www\movies

here is your html code for hyper link:

<html>
<head>
<title> my video list</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="movies\1.mp4"> click here to show or download video no 1</a>
<a href="movies\2.mp4"> click here to show or download video no 2</a>
    //and so on.....
</body>
</html>
