How to create a web link in your message.

I noticed that some of you are posting links in your messages by just copying the link text into your text message. This means that we have to copy your text link and paste it into our browser address box to get to that web page. But, there is a better way.

Here is an example:

This is a link to our <a href="www.stpaulairlines.com">St. Paul Airline home page.

Just click on the words "St. Paul Airline" to take you to that link. To do this, you need to use the following format:

This is a link to our &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stpaulairlines.com&quot;&gt;St. Paul Airline</a>
home page.

or -

This is a link to our &lt;a href=&quot;http://YOUR LINK HERE">YOUR TEXT HERE</a>
home page.


Geeky Cool, n'est pas?

nice one Bob!!!

That's great Bob.

If I may;

When someone clicks on the link you provided, the new page will open on the same window or tab. If you would like the new page to open on a separate window just add 'target="_blank"' in your HREF tag.

Here is the example:
This will publish as below: (try left mouse button clicking on the link)
<a href="news.yahoo.com" target="_blank">Click here for Yahoo news

Now click on the one that Bob provided above. See the difference. Thought I'd share few tricks.

Thanks.
