Subject: Posting links

Not the simplest of things to do so I suspect that you'll be doing lots of cutting and pasting of people's links for the time being. It's easy if you know HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) as the messageboard accepts HTML in your messages which most MBs won't do.

So for what it is worth you can do:

<a href="YOUR LINK HERE">LINK NAME</a>

so Shawshank's Tourettes link would look like:

<a href="http://www.tsa.org.uk/Swearing-Disease.asp">TOURETTES</a>

When you send/approve your message, the MB will interpret the stuff you've just written as something like TOURETTES

If you want the link to appear in a new browser window rather than using the same one as the Voy messageboard then add this to the details:

target=_blank

So the link then looks like
<a href="http://www.tsa.org.uk/Swearing-Disease.asp" target=_blank>TOURETTES</a>

and then works as

TOURETTES
