Subject: Creating blue clicky thingies for links
Hi all

We seem to need a place for instructions on how to insert blue clicky thingies for posting site addresses.

I do it the easy way. I copied the line of html which Joe Offer placed in a thread, and then I saved the line somewhere accessible (i.e. I filed it in my e-mail programme under a folder which I named "Keep these" so that I wouldn't delete it). Now when I want to do a clicky thingy I just copy and paste that line and replace the Mudcat address with the address I want to insert, and I can write anything I want by replacing the text which says "click here".


Cut & paste this text into your thread posting then replace the Mudcat address with the site address you are recommending

Just in case the blue clicky thingy doesn't work, the site address for Joe's cut-and-paste text is: http://www.mudcat.org/Detail.CFM?messages__Message_ID=73763

I can't write the text of the line out without it turning into a clicky thingy but someone who is html-literate will come rushing in on his/her white charger (computer) and do this for me, won't you Joe, or someone else during Joe's absence?? (not - yechhh!)
