posting web links in forums

How can I post links? I tried the button with the globe and link emblem on it.. and I can past the link but i do not get a prompt to rename it.

how do I change that?

Enter this...

[URL=URL of Web Page]Link Label[/URL]

For example...

This...

[URL=www.foxnews.com]Fox News[/URL]

Will produce this...

Fox News

Nothing to it.

Ahh.. so clicking that link button does not really work?

Yes, it does...

When you click the globe, the popup lets you enter in the url.

After you finish that.. it takes you to your text box where you are writing your post.

In that should be a highlighted portion of the "link" that you need to edit.
