Point-and-click (hyperlink) code
Below is the code for creating a "hyperlink" to a web page, such as your photo album or another cool site. A hyperlink, if I'm using the right word, is a point-and-click link that allows others to click on a word or phrase and be magically transported to the site without copying the web address into their browser.

Create this magic by typing this formula, as modified by the instructions that follow:

[a href=THE WEB ADDRESS]NAME OF THE LINK[/a]

Replace the [ or ] with a < or >.

The BOLD in the address is instructional. That is, type in the actual web address including http:// (don't type in THE WEB ADDRESS).

Good luck and post if you have any questions. I'm not a computer techie but am passing this along again since it came up on the Gizzard trip.

RE: Hyperlink code
you can also check out "The HTML thread". Lots of stuff there, although I've not taken the time to learn.

Good suggestion Switchback.

Also, NAME OF THE LINK means the "tag" you want to give the point-and-click word or phrase, such as "Trip Pics" or "click here"
