links in a thread

[Miller]

I would like to have someone explain how to get links into a thread, similar to what Chris has done in the following response in another thread........................How is this done? Thanks a buttload.

Well, I'm finally getting to implement all of this fun stuff. Customer Reviews section and the long awaited Knowledge Base which I've dubbed Treo Support. There are some pretty major template issues that I'm looking to resolve, but overall I believe this software I purchased will do the job quite well. I'm going to start adding to the knowledgebase from the submissions I've recieved over the past few weeks.

The software allows me to set up categories. The first (and only FAQ) that I have listed is under the category Treo Software. For me, this is a logical category that covers any topic/article/FAQ related to software ON the Treo. I think a category for Desktop Software - PC, Desktop Software - Mac might be another way to further break out the categories.

As I read the submissions, I'm sure it will provide ideas for categories. I'm open to suggestions. Here's the main Treo Support page (complete with broken template) where the categories will appear. I can set up keywords for what Treo smartphones the specific article references. Yet another way is to associate articles to multiple related categories. For example, an article that is related to the Treo 650, Treo 600 and Treo Software will appear in all of those categories.

I'll help... just highlight the word(s) you would like to link to and press the world/link button . It will ask for the URL - paste or type the URL and that's it.. the code will be generated in the page.

Dunno if the forum code will let me get away with this but, if you want to do this on the fly, here's the syntax:
{url=website address}link text{/url}

Edit: Guess not... Just replace the {} brackets with [] brackets

Thanks Chris. I just used it and it worked great.
