Douglas,
If you find a post with a thing you like to copy click on quote and you see how it is done.
In case of the covered links I went to a post by Dale and did a bit of copy and paste.
In an other thread I made a link like that and I will use that as my sample for you.

It looks like this:
Quote:

But when you hit the quote button you will see Code:

You can find it in the [url=http://www.baen.com/library/][u][color=Blue]Baen Free Library[/color][/u][/url], which is a good place to try out books. 

So what you do now is looking for a post with a link, paste the link with all the hidden things to your post and then you change the hidden things to what you want it to be.

First, you look for the url, the part that tells the computer to go to the right place. An url normaly starts with "http://" and holds something like ".com" or ".nl" or in ".jpg" for a picture. Above here you see that that bit is within square brackets, [] so you change the bit between the brackets to the link you want to use. Like http://www.slinging.org/
And when you see the link you see a little bit of text which is blue and underlined. You need to change that bit of blue text too, to make people understand what your link is about.

The Code:

[u] 

makes in underlined and the Code:

 [color=Blue] 

makes it blue.

All these codes have an end code too, normally the same letter (combination) with an / before it. Here you see all of them together Code:

[/color][/u][/url],  

Normaly you do not see all the codes, I had to use the code "show and ignore code" to make them visible.


I hope you understand what I am trying to say. And whatever you do, use the preview button below the type your text window, to see what you are doing.

I knew you could do it.

ok think you guys can help with something else?

i have this fancy new wireless key board and it has hotkey buttens right on it, like a home page button that takes you to a page called 1 when you hit it. any way to set this hot key so that it will take me to slinging.org?

thanks

When working with anything wireless,  I like to spin and click my heels three times while verbally demanding my wishes come to fruition.

Must be the sonic and RF wave interactions that make it work or something.


Peace,

P.S.  And if that don't work,  I might give in and click on the start button at the lower left of the windows desktop and scroll up to "settings" or "control panel" and then click on the keyboard icon and see what I can find.

Then this IS serious!  I can only offer one last bit of sage wisdom passed down from the ancients....

Shhhhh....you didn't hear it from me.

Can you give us the name of the brand and model of the keyboard?
