How do i embed a link

[palms]

Not sure of where to put this but i will try here

as the title says how do i embed a link ( well i think that is what it is called) you know instead of the long web address
a word like "click" HERE

I have hunted around on this forum and others for the answer ( and yes the ever faithful google) and had no luck and have meant to post a how to for ages and not got round to it but today i am going for it, but please dont make it to hard

Here

Type your word 'Here', highlight it and click on the button that's got an image of a world and chain on it...paste the link into the pop up box and click ok.

What I would like to see is the words that do have links embedded changed to a different colour as sometimes they can be very difficult to find. :P

You can manually change the color. I agree, the regular link does not stand out. Here is the same link once again.

Yeah but people don't.

Hi Palms,

This forum like most, uses BB Code to generate its "effects".

BBCode Tutorial

(url=http://www.createforum.com/support/viewtopic.php?t=2470)(b)(color=blue)BBCode Tutorial(/color)(/b)(/url)

Please note: The writer of that tutorial has used round brackets to avoid the text being converted by the BBCode interpreter, as I have done to illustrate the code I used to create the link.

In practice you use square brackets [] to enclose the code "tabs".

If you want to play around with BB Coding, try using FASS which is a free standing editor, allowing you to play to your hearts content.

Any questions just PM me.

I was going to mention that to avoid the round brackets you can wrap around Code tags, however it does not work here. PHP Code tags will, though:

Hi Juergen,

I did originally put the code in a code box, but as you've found, on this site they don't work as they do on most sites (forgot to try php), hence the use of ().

There's any amount of variation in BB Code, and how it's interpreted will depend on which variety a particular site is using.

In my experience, the tabs that seem to have most different interpretations tend to be size tabs.

and my idea for a special interest would be to produce the image within this link

but use a family prayer as the words used to create the image...
teh prayer: And shepherds we shall be, For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti.
