Linking to post in a thread - how?

[heretic422]

If anyone can help...

I've seen it done and had it explained to me that I'm doing in wrong but how do you link to a post in the middle of a thread so that when you click the link, the post pops up.

Also, how do you link to something and represent that url with different text, you know, like click HERE for xxxx?

Thanks in advance!

Hi heretic422!

You just copy and past the entire address from your broser client.

Like this: http://dictionary.reference.com/

Make sure to the http:// is included. The link does not show up as a link until you submit the message.

Hope this helps.

URL text

go here for some nice software

this will appear as : go here for some nice software and when you click on it will work (see post below)

what about the other half of Heretic's question? linking directly to a specific post, so you don't have to say "click here and scroll down 15 posts..."

Click on the tiny post image to the left on the date to link directly to posts.
