I can't get a link to add any other way that just the URL like this: http://www.ar15.com/forums/active.html What I like to get is something like Active Topics instead of just the URL. I've tried filling the title block out and I just don't seem to be doing something right. What am I doing wrong? |

It's simple. Enter the hyperlink text i.e. cool link name Highlight your cool link name text, click on the Hyperlink icon in the toolbar (the chain) Put the web address into the Source box Click insert Verify that you have no address prefix or the correct prefix (watch for http when you already have an http) and click ok |

So enter the title and then use the link tool. I was trying to use the title box in the hyperlink editor. Thanks so much Phil. I knew it would be something simple that I was doing wrong. |

Just FYI, the way to type it out is like this:

When you take the spaces out of the 'url' it looks like this: LaRue The same goes for images: [i m g]http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/9100/dscn0736b.jpg[/i m g] Without the spaces in the 'img' it looks like this:
