KT - don't worry about 'clever' stuff for now. You want to post a clickable link.
Open another page, and get the page up that you want to link to.
Copy the address in the address bar at the top of the page. To do this double click on the address until it goes dark, then right click and click 'copy'.
Now in this answer box, right click and click 'paste'.
The link should now appear here. It will not look like a link until you click the 'submit' button which posts your answer.
It will automatically be a link.

I know how to post a link, i just was wondering how to do the bit where u put a word say "click here" i remember in the days of CB someone telling me how to do it but then i sort of stopped using the site for ages and ages and now i cant remember how to do it...i remember it being quite easy and logical.....i can do it in word but on here it doesnt seam to work the same.
argh CLICK HERE
its fine peanuts, thats exactly what i wanted...the little code, all the writing on that weblink before just confused me...your bit of code was good enough for me to understand what i was doing....just to much wrtiting on the webpage....i have a word phobia at the moment i think, considering i have 2 weeks to write a dissertation and 2 assignments.
