A real simple one

[hersnab]

Right for people in the know this is going to be real easy but for me I can't seem to find a straight answer, I know that on this forum I can click the create hyperlink button to link to web pages without the long http; stuff e.g.

http://www.d-a-l.com/help/

If I do the same but click create hyperlink button I can get it to do this:

DAL Computer Help

But how do I do it manually on other forums and chat rooms I.M. etc.

I know its easy, but its only easy when you know how, or who,

Cheers

There are two different ways of doing it.

First would be to use BB Code which is enabled on most forums, this would be in the format of:

Free Computer Help!

The other way is to use HTML, although many forums do not allow HTML to be posted in forums, the code for that would look like this:

<a href="http://www.d-a-l.com">Free Computer Help!</a>

- and would produce the same looking link like this - Free Computer Help!


Hope that's what you meant!

Sorry the BB code above is automatically converting to a link please see - http://www.d-a-l.com/help/misc.php?do=bbcode
