create one of those cool links in a thread?

[gorilla]

how do you create a link when you say 'find it here', and the word 'here' is the link?
if you know what i mean....

easy .. [ url=http://www.yourlink.com ]Words for link[ /url ]

But without the spaces

so that would be

Words for link (link doesn't link to anything btw)

When making an example link, it is common internet practice to link to:

http://www.example.com

Which is set up just for this purpose.

I never knew that, as my original post most proabably highlights.
Cheers.

I would copy the web address of the bit I want to link to then in my post left click on the word HERE and drag the curser over the word to highlight it, then whilst its highlighted I click on the Insert link button and the little window comes up.

Then first of all I delete all the crap in the little window (dunno why its there cos the web address has all that anyway) and paste the webb address into it.
Clich the OK button and when you click on the HERE you get taken to a totally spuurious random thread that I chose to pick on

Give it s preview and see if it works for you.

its a bit more of a pain the older software did it for you if i remember right you got 2 boxes to enter into one for the link and one for the text you wanted displayed

Guess it got removed in the latest versions of the board software or turned off ?? or not turned on
