computer question

[xwizard4]

maybe someone can tell me how to put on of those url links on my postings
so someone could click on it and go directly to that webpage.

right above the text box are a bunch of buttons....click on the one that says http :// and follow the directions to add the link

Like this link back to lit's home page

sorry,pokerman. my computer has no button marked http ://

You can also put a WWW option on the panel beneath your posts simply by typing an URL into the web site option in your control panel.

(Now there's a sentence that would have made no sense 10 years ago. World....moving too fast...stop...!)

you can type it in yourself... it would look like this..

[url]http://www. whatever your site is [/ url]


there isnt normally a space between the / and the url at the end... i just stuck it in so you could see what it looks like... and the button he's talking about is on the reply page.. its right under the message icon choices if you choose to pick one of those..

When you type a reply, there is a subject box, followed by icon choices, followed by buttons where you can put text in bold italics underline make it small large or huge change the FONT the color then there are the buttons to add a url and stuff then comes this text box.

XWizard,

Open a browser window and select the exact web page you want to use as the URL. Go to the "address" or "url" field at the top of the window where you can type in the URLs. Select the URL with your mouse. If you use Windoze you can then right click on the URL and you get a popup menu. Select "copy" from that menu. Now create a post in a thread here and in that post right click and select paste:

http://www.literotica.com/forum/newreply.php?s=&action=newreply&threadid=47948


Make sure there are spaces around the URL and the post will do the rest automatically for you.

Well then it's time to upgrade from Netscape 1.0

you should have a segment of the reply page that looks like the one i attached here.. there is a http:// button on there.. there should be one on every reply page when you reply to a thread

Lit has two different "styles" you can use. Selecting the gray background style gives you no vbCode box, like W&U just showed. Selecting the other style gives you different options.

Ha! Still the Guru!

The HTTP: // button is there in both color schemes. I highlighted it in blue for those who can't see it against the grey.
