Title: How to apply formats, post hyperlinks etc
Post by: TrickyDicky on July 19, 2005, 09:42 AM

Some people seem to be having difficulties with formatting etc.  There's a really easy method for this:

Select the text you want to apply the formatting to with your mouse (Click and drag):

Some blurb

Then click the button you want (eg Bold)

If you want to apply more formatting, select Just the text again:

...and click on another button. Same process for apllying quote tags, hyperlinks etc etc

The thing to remember is to just select the text only each time (click and drag), being careful not to select the tags as well

Easy eh? ;)

like THIS ONE  ;) (http://www.radbmx.co.uk) you mean?

you can even turn pics into links, click my Kuwie banner to see :)

for a click here text prompt on a hyperlink you need to obviously use the link tags

the tags [url*]and the closing tag with the / inside it.     the tags [url*][/url*]  (ignore the * symbols i added them to stop the tags working) but the tags look like that but without the *!

normally to add a link you just use the tags & write the web adress between the ] & [ brackets between the 2 tags
this will give you a hyperlink with the web address as the highlighted text, just making sure you got that first ;)
to add different text like a click here etc to the link you need to open the tags as normal [url]....and the other but dont write the web adress between the two ][ you need to do it like this then you have your click me here and then close the tags as usual with the [/ur*l] without the *
the close tag always has the /url but inside the[ ]

so basically its adding a = symbol & the web address into the first tag then adding your "click me" prompt between the tags!

hard to describe but hope it helped ;) (http://www.blahblahblah)

Hi got it cheers  ;)

I used to work on Dreamweaver but it's been a while  :-[

so for web use  = for Rad click here (http://www.radbmx.co.uk)

This is an example of how to do it -

[ url=http://www.radbmx.co.uk ]for Rad click here[ /url ] NO SPACES BETWEEN TAGS

so for email use  = click to email (you@yourdomain.co.uk'subject=Rad BMX)

This is an example of how to do it  -

[ email=you@yourdomain.co.uk'subject=Rad BMX ]click to email[ /email ]  NO SPACES BETWEEN TAGS

Hope this helps others  ;)
