Converting a URL address string into a word or sentence in a post.

Hi Roy,

You can find how to do this by clicking on the FAQ button, located at the top beside the Search button.

Code: Select all

It is done like this:
[url]http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/index.php[/url]. 

That looks like this: http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/index.php

The phpbb code tags are the "[]" square brackets. It is similar to HTML. To include a hyperlink without the long address, like I use quite often then use something like this:

Code: Select all

[url=http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/index.php][b][u]Intervideo-Ulead Web Board[/u][/b][/url]

That code looks like this: Intervideo-Ulead Web Board

Just as Ron says

Try posting/replying to a message -- then hover your mouse pointer over the buttons along the top and you will see some "help text" above the message area ("B" for BOLD, URL for what you are asking, etc...)

Regards,
George
