Techie question.

How do I make a link, but instead of showing the www.----- link address, I put a different word that becomes the link.

For example, those with traitor, which leads to a kkkarl rover site.

Thanks!

1. Like this:

<a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/">TEXT TO DISPLAY</a>.

Just replace the < and > with the corresponding square brackets (and no spaces in the url)

TEXT TO DISPLAY

2. Like this...

[link:www.whitehouse.gov|Insert Pithy Phrase Here]

3. Same way as if you were writing the html yourself

do <a href="http://www.example.com">Example</a> except use square brackets instead of the usual html brackets. It should come out like this:

4. I still don't get it.

Attention 101st Keyboard Brigade http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/infomgt/forms/eforms/dd0004.pdf/ Military Enlistment Forms are right here>

Why isn't this working? I'm not versed in HTML at all!

5. You need to type it like I showed you.

Don't forget to leave off the http:// part.

Using your example:

[link:www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/infomgt/forms/eforms/dd0004.pdf|Atention
