just a question for anyone who knows really , how do you create a link so that you can type words like "click here" to view the link instead of inserting the full url of the website ie:- http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/... in simple terms how do i alter the link into words like "click here" so it takes you to the website
all help appreciated thanx

Ok when you go to reply (I have only just learnt this and the first time I have done it) to a post, youwill see a little "world" icon with what looks like a paperclip. Click on that then copy and paste yourlink in the box that pops up. Press ok, then hit delete once (it deletes the highlighted text) then insert the text you want.

Then paste the copied link. The end result is the same.

well that didnt work !!!

look here plz (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/)

hooorayyyyyyy i did it .... thx both of ya :)

had to try it again lol
good chat site (http://www.phreik.com/index.php)

I need to try

This doesnt look right :confused:

Oh well...lets see!

errr it doesn't work!

the one i did worked :)

Lets see now

It still looks the same as the one before what didn't work. It might have been something to do with the pic I tried to put on. :confused:

:cry: :blush:

keep trying , i did it 2nd time

OK LAST GO

It looks the same again.

I clicked the world thing, then copy and pasted my link into the box, then highlighted and deleted the link, then wrote what I wrote...Thats right isnt it?

when you clik ok ..... the link you pasted in the box should appear twice (2nd 1 hilighted blue) hit delete once so the hi-lited bit goes & type what u want there then submit msg

Alternatively you can manually do it...

Type the following

(URL="urlgoeshere")texthere(/URL)

where the website you wish to link to goes where it says urlgoeshere, and the text description goes in texthere

Replace ( ) with [ ]


eg BBC NEWS (http://news.bbc.co.uk)

hope that makes sense...
