Can you insert in-page links using VB code? If yes, how?

Is html disabled in all messages?

Can you insert in-page links using VB code? If yes, how?

Is html disabled in all messages?

just leave the "automatically parse urls" box checked in the options section below the text box for a basic link:

http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=146588

Use the "http:\\" button above the text box to better identify the link:
Your stories

Since there are no bookmarks in a thread for you to reference, there is no target for posting a link to a specific post in the same thread. There is a "show single post" format if you know the specific post id number. (the syntax can be found in any post by a user you have on ignore.)

HTML is disabled in the body of posts, but it is enabled in signature lines.

<a href="http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=146588">My Stories</a>

Cut and paste the bold text into your signature to make you member page clickable. add Target="blank" to force it to open in a new window.

Thanks once again! Everything you said is true: I tried it all.

In case you're interested, all I was trying to do with wanting the "a name" code was find the means to create a detailed (20-50 items) linked Contents page for a series of threads organized by topic. The contents needed to link the topics, not the threads. I found a decent workaround last night, using the post ID feature. It's not perfect, but it works well--at least on paper.
