I just cant work this out so your help would be much appreciated. I see a lot of posts where you have a link but instead of having http;/www etc etc it just says here or any other word you just click on. Is this easy to do and can anybody explain how its done in the simplest way possible? Thanks.

If you just want to shorten a very long url use tinyurl

http://tinyurl.com/

You can use it with a 'preview' feature to reassure others the link is safe.

Thats html. To make a link like that in a post you have to use bbcode:

[url=http://www.cyprus-forum.com/]Here[/url]

Cheers Sotos. Didn't read them just whacked the URLs for them in. Keeping the typing to a minimum as I am stretched out on the couch! I am an html girl.
