+#### always
 
-### always (default)
 `{"enforceDynamicLinks": "always"}` enforces the rule if the href is a dynamic link (default)
 
 When {"enforceDynamicLinks": "always"} is set, the following patterns are considered errors:
 
 ```jsx
 var Hello = <a target='_blank' href="http://example.com/"></a>
-var Hello = <a target='_blank' href={ dynamicLink }></a>
+var Hello = <a target='_blank' href={dynamicLink}></a>
 ```
 
 The following patterns are **not** considered errors:
 
 ```jsx
-var Hello = <p target='_blank'></p>
-var Hello = <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="http://example.com"></a>
-var Hello = <a target='_blank' href="relative/path/in/the/host"></a>

+var Hello = <a target="_blank" href="/absolute/path/in/the/host"></a>
 var Hello = <a></a>
 ```
 
-### never
+#### never
 
 `{"enforceDynamicLinks": "never"}` does not enforce the rule if the href is a dynamic link
 
 When {"enforceDynamicLinks": "never"} is set, the following patterns are **not** considered errors:
 
 ```jsx
-var Hello = <a target='_blank' href={ dynamicLink }></a>
+var Hello = <a target='_blank' href={dynamicLink}></a>
