How do I put a hyperlink in a post?

Well, it's not really that simple. I know I can cut and paste a hyperlink in (e.g., www.xxyyzz.com).

What I really want to know is how to place a hyperlink here (with the here being the hyperlink).

Thanks,

Dana

Have you ever seen someone post a message which says, "check out this neat article here" and here is actually the hyperlink and is in blue. How do you do that?

Click the control (above the "Post reply" window) that says "http://". You can then "Enter the text to be displayed for the link (optional)" if you like, click "OK", and then "Enter the full URL for the link". (This can be pasted in from the clipboard, if you've already copied the link there.)

I clicked the http:// button, but nothing happened. Do I have to be in enhanced mode?

Under "User CP" "Edit Options", you'll find "Other Options".
Quote:
Use vBCode quick links on your message input screens?
Enabling this option allows you to quickly manipulate different aspects of your posts including color, font, and size. In addition you can click on smilies to have them inserted into your posts. You may disable this option if it causes problems for you.
You want the answer to be "yes".

I seem to be in "Normal Mode" myself, so that can't be your problem.

JavaScript also has to be enabled to use the VBCode buttons in the reply window. You can still type it in manually though by using tags listed on the page brainchild posted
