    Sorry, about that, but how do you do just put 'link' or 'good luck', or whatever instead of copying address?

    when you are posting, copy the link then click on the little world icon and paste the link into it.
    (I usually take out the 'http' bit) then change the highlighted bit to what you want to call it

    have a go - that sounds confusing, but it's not really.

    Ok, say I want to link to your post then I will right click to get the link then click on the little world icon up there. I will then paste the link into that and it will turn out like this:

    [U RL="h ttp:/ /forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=4282672&postcount=3"]ht tp:/ / forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=4282672&postcount=3[/URL]

    With two lots of the same link. So on the second link, just highlight it, then type in what ever you want. Like this:

    [U RL="h ttp:/ /forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=4282672&postcount=3"]Furndire's post[/URL]

    Now when I take the spaces back out which I put so you could see it, it turns out like this:

    Copy the link location, type what you want the link to say, then highlight that text, click on the link icon (just underneath the smiley face to the right of where you select bold/italic ect) then paste the link location in that box. Hope this makes sense....my instructions dont seem up to much tonight ;)

    It looks all very complicated, I'll have a go tomorrow, when my head's not so fuzzy.:eek:
