husband’s homepage

http://www.angelfire.com/myband/guitartrag/

Just a lame attempt…

well, let’s try it this way

www.angelfire.com/myband/guitartrag/

Can I get some help here? When I do it the way it says in the FAQ link to vBulletin hyperlink coding, I get this:

What’s the “/sdmb/” doing there? How did it get there? I didn’t put it there. How do I make it go away? I really wanna learn how to do hyperlinks.

www.angelfire.com/myband/guitartrag/

Hey! It worked! Just use the url /url commands at beginning and end encased in brackets and leave off the http:// stuff. I almost amaze myself sometimes.

Yeah, I can make it work that way too. But I want to learn how to do it the other way, you know, just a one or two word link, instead of the whole address. It just looks cooler that way, and it makes people think you actually know what you’re doing. :slight_smile:

Cristi’s husband’s homepage

Ummmm…like this?

Oops! Try this: reply to my message with the hyperlink and it should show the code sequence.

Well, what exactly did you type into this little box to make that work?

url=“http://www.angelfire.com/myband/guitartrag/”]Cristi’s husband’s homepage[/url

Just type the above with an opening bracket at the beginning and a closing bracket at the end…I think.

once more

Nope. Still not working. What am I doing wrong here?

What exactly is not working, Cristi? It seems to me like it’s working just fine.

I think the “url=” tag requires the “http://”, so that using it with just “ww_.etc” doesn’t work. In your second post, it looks like you left out the colon after http, and in your later posts you aren’t using http with the “url=”. Either that or something else.

again

Yay! That one worked! Yay! By jove, I think I’ve got it!
