Making Links?

[iheartscience]

I know this has been covered but I couldn''t find it when I searched!

How do you make a link in a post? Can someone please post a link to a "How To" thread or just tell me? Thank you!

When I post, there''s a globe with a chainlink button, I click on that and type the title to the link, next it prompts the http:// area for the web address, which I usually copy and paste from the source I am linking in to the box and voila! my link is posted!!!!

I don't have a globe! Does anyone know how to do it from Safari without a globe button?

P.S. But thank you anyway, Princess!

Thing, you do have a box. It''s right at the end of the chain of symbols at the top of your posting box. I am in Safari right now and there is one.

All you do is click on that little box (it''s a green globe with a link of chain in front) copy and paste your link into the first box (or whatever you want to call the link if you want to give it a name), then copy and paste the link into the SECOND box that pops up and voila.

Thank you neatfreak! I am a dummy-I totally do have a globe. I just know it looks different when I use IE at work so I guess I jumped to conclusions!

Okay, practice time:
