HTML help

Postby Xaiveir » Thu Aug 23, 2007 2:07 pm

Ok i cannot for the life of me remember the command in HTML to link something, turning the link into a word. Hard to explain but i will try.


if i want http://www.randomwebsite.com to come up as a clickable link, but instead of seeing the link, you see CLICK HERE which will direct you to the website.

Hmm i hope i explained that correctly.

it's the square brackets [ ] here


html will be <url=www.url.com>text </url> i think



may need quotes of some flavour around the actual url

it's been too long
