To insert a link:

Just type the URL (as you did). Example: [http://www.straightdope.com](http://www.straightdope.com)

Make it look more professional with a bit of code. Example: [\*\*url=“[http://www.straightdope.com](http://www.straightdope.com)”]The Straight Dope

Which looks like: [The Straight Dope](http://www.straightdope.com)

Don’t try HTML here. The administration has disabled it due to misuse (some moron used it to hide ad banners). vB code (with the addition of the [\*\*sup] and [\*\*sub] tags) will have to do.

The place to test code is ATMB (About This Message Board).

No sweat, **Poloin99** , just doing my civic SDMB duty.

Instruction on how to post stuff really goes in the ATMB forum, but this thread looks pretty played out, so here goes:

To quote another poster’s post hit the “quote” button below that post. If you want to insert a quote manually, just type {quote} and {/quote} around the quoted material, using square brackets instead of curly ones. The lines and indentation come automatically.

Looks like you already know how to insert a link.

If you have any other questions, do a search in the ATMB forum. It’s full of helpful stuff.
