Can someone explain to me how to type in a web site so you can just click on it.I see it and do it in the forums but don't know how to when I write in forums.Thanks for the help.60 and still learning. mobrules.gif

Just copy and paste in the full url to the website, the http and everything after it that shows up in your browser's address line for the website. Then finish your post and save. That's all.

Make sure you add the web sites to your favorites. When you open the internet go to the top and click on favorites and it will bring you right to the website. You can also tell most websites that you register under to save your password. This will bring you right into the site without having to re-write your password. You can usually click on view new posts to see all the new posts since your last visit.

You can also use email notifications when there is a reply.

Most web-site forums require you to be registered before using. Watch what web-sites you register under, because they could create a lot of spam.

Hope this help you out:)smile.gif You're doing great for 60!!!

What I think he means is for example


www.espn.com

or

click here

I dont know how to do it myself, but where it says "click here" its an actual link to www.espn.com. how do you link the wording "click here" to actually be a link for www.espn.com?
steel
Oh, okay.

Type in what you want to say like, I found this cool website click here to go see it.

Then, with your mouse, highlight the words "click here" and then click the little icon in the editor for adding a link. A box will pop-up saying that you must add a url. Paste in the url to the website and click OK.

When you save your message, when someone clicks on your "click here" it will take them to the webpage you wanted to show them.




And here's an example of what I just described:

Look guys, here is {MOB} Ouch's stats for this week on Modern Weapons BAS. Click here.

Perfecto!!!!

At least thats what I thought he was asking for. I know I wanted to know how to do this. Thanks Steel!!
PFC Mustangman
Thats what I meant nothing.Now How do you high light the words?Also where is the little icon in the editor for adding a link?

Example 1:
<a href="http://www.burzurq.com">Link Name</A>

http://www.burzurq.com in my example above should be replaced with the URL to the site you want the link to point to. Place the URL between the " quotes ".

Link Name in my example above is where you would place the title for the link. Place the title between the greater than less than symbols.

Here is what that link would look like in the forum: Link Name


Example 2:
Line one is an example of what would be typed into the forum. Line two is what that line would look like after submitting your post.

Line1:

Today I visited <a href="http://www.computing.net">Computing.Net</A>.

Line 2:

Today I visited computing.net.

I'll try to give you step by step instructions.

1. Click Reply to a posting, or start a new topic. Type in what you want to say. It will look something like this:

2. Highlight the words you want to make into a link. To highlight the words, go over them with your left mouse button held down. Then you are going to click on the little Link button that I've indicated with a red arrow below:

IPB Image

3. When you click on that Link button, you'll get a popup asking you to enter a url. Enter it as I have done below for mobclan. Then click okay:

IPB Image

4. When you save your message, it will end up like this:

The website to mobclan is click here

If you don't get the editor when you click "Reply" or "Add a Topic," then you need to go into your personal profile setup and select for it to give you the editor when you are making posts. Also, you will not get the full editor if you hit "Fast Reply" 'cause it's not available in that mode.

Hope this helps.
