Help! Links only linking to current page

When I add a link, it only will make the link to go the page I am on. I am trying to create a links page for my site, but it only makes the link go to the current page instead of going to the actual site that I am linking to. The page I am trying to create is located here
http://mycpanelhost.com/links.php

The code in that page is here

<? include ("common.php"); ?>
<?php include("header.php"); ?>


Below are some helpful links.<br><br>

                 
                    
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<a href"http://globalhostingforum.info">Global Hosting Forum</a><br><br>
