How do I

[suki1964]

post a linky thing?

I want to post some piccies but the url is massive and I dont know how to shorten it

[Cob-Web]

Without the spaces, as follows:


[ url = type url here] type text for link here [/url]

Ooooh Rachel.....  How do I do the linky's you do.  You know when you post a link to something but you don't see the html link just the word like Here

I did it once but I've forgotten since

Hmmm

I want to do the ones like MrsMac wants to do - where you just type the here and it  hides the long url

[Cob-Web]

OK, it doesn't make sense now I've read it back, but its hard to show in a post, as it keeps creating the link - so I'll miss out the square bracket at the very beginnig and very end

url=www.iwight.com]here[/url

Add a open square bracket at the beginning, and close bracket at the end and you get
here

I shall give it a try - cheers
