Hi,

When including a link to an URL in a post to the forum, how do I make the hyptertext link to look something like "See This" instead of typing in the correct URL.
I'ld like to know how to include a link which reads for instance "See This" instead of : [url]www.nonsensicalbullcrap.com/horses/kerfuffle/yadda-yadda 00337865/http ..... hml 36254

Thanks in advance.

Like this ?

LINK (http://www.nonsensicalbullcrap.com/...kerfuffle/yadda)

Write the text.
Highlight it
Then click the link button and enter the link

should do the trick.

Thank you, Mark.

What do you mean when you say "Then click the link button". What is the "link button"?

When you use the reply button (NOT quick reply), there is a button looks like a picture of the earth with a chainlink. That's the 'Insert Link' button.
