Posting web sites as links

Post by Alan Michael »

This must be fairly simple but I can't seem to track it down. How do I post a web site that can be clicked on to take you directly to that site. Thanks, Alan

Here's the link to this thread: http://www.b0b.com/forum/Forum12/HTML/000311.html I just copied it from the address line at the top and pasted it here. I'm sure the "www" is required, but not sure about the "http" and "://"

That did it Jim. I knew it was something fairly simple that I was overlooking. Thanks a million.
