Exclamation General Information on Posting

Creating Hyperlinks:

Sometimes URL's appear without the HTML codes which designate a "Uniform Resource Locator". Without these codes you will always have to copy and paste into a browser. But that's not necessary.

These HTML codes usually are supplied automatically when you create a post containing "https" or "http", etc. I copied your links to my post and the codes appeared for me automatically. As you can see by hovering on the link below, it's "hot".

If you click "quote" below to the right, you can see the url and /url codes. Otherwise, the codes are interpreted and not displayed.

There's another way which really cleans up your URL's. I'll post that later. This little tutorial will be moved later to preserve your topic.

For more information see Hyperlinks with Names, this document appears in the FAQ section, known as BBCodes. Scroll down to "URL Hyperlinking."

I apologize if I'm telling you (or anyone else) something you already know.

Thanks for participating in the forum discussion.
