How to insert hypertext into a post on 11/01/2008 11:11:43 MDT Print View

How do you insert a hyperlink into one of my post that would have a link to another portion of the forum?

I am posting photos of my trip in the photo gallery and I would like to have some hypertext links at the very bottom to link to other photo essays that I have posted in the gallery to make it easier for people to see the other trips that I have done.

Thanks for your help.

To embed a link type the following exactly, including the quote marks -


Embedded Link

substituting your link for the stuff in quotes, and some meaningful word or phrase for the target.

(this won't work with Flickrs naming convention, which contains the '@ ' symbol)

Greg,

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

Really appreciate it.

Will try it out on my next photo essay trip report.

Can't insert hypertext now! on 11/14/2008 14:09:29 MST Print View

I have always used the same to insert text, but it doesn't work for me now. Anyone know why? Anything to do with the forum changing?
