I must be blind Jeff, but I still cannot find the way to post an underlined name or title that provides a link, or a piece of paper in a post that when clicked is a link. I will look further.
Did you read the article though?
Joe,
The answer to that question can be found in the FAQ section here:
FAQ: "Can I use html in my posts?" This is the
THIRD time I have provided this link for you. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif" alt="" />
I'll even spell it out for you below.
In the following examples, I will use the "code" tags to show how the string looks otherwise the tags themselves won't be displayed. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
So, on this Board there are actually "4" ways to create a clickable link:
1) Simply type or copy/paste the URL into your message. It will be automatically converted to a clickable link, e.g.,
http://www.the-highway.com 2) Making the URL (address) clickable by using the UBB Code tags:
[url]http://www.the-highway.com[/url]
The result will look exactly like #1 example above:
http://www.the-highway.com 3) Hiding the actual URL and making an alternate Title/Name clickable:
[url=http://www.the-highway.com]Home Page[/url]
With this option, only the Text will be displayed but clicking it will take you to the hidden URL (address). So it would look like this:
Home Page4) Use the "Advanced UBBT Code" options (easy version of #3):
- Click on little arrow beside "Url/Mail/Picture"
- Click on "Webadress"
- Type or paste the URL into the field
- Click "OK"
- Type the name or title in the field
- Click "OK"
See the screenshot below.
All these methods require that you include
http://www. in the address. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
