    You get one window at a time, right?

    In the first one, type whatever word you want. That's the word that will show up, underlined, in your post.

    Hit OK

    Then it changes to the second window. In that one, paste the URL you copied from the address bar of whatever website you want to link to.

    After you paste the URL, hit OK.

    Bingo.
    Sid,
    I only ever get one window. The one I explained above. No place to put a word. Just the ability to select "type" and a place to paste a URL. Which from the way you guys are talking, sounds like this should be the "second" window that comes up after you type a word and hit OK in the first window?

    Hey, that's bad for his self esteem. Steve, you took longer to learn it because you're different in a special way. rolleyes1.gif

    Thx Sid rolleyes1.gif

    My momma always told me I was special rolleyes1.gif

    It really would have helped my pea brain if someone would have pointed out that you type the "word" in your post FIRST, then highlight it, THEN go to the goofy ball and chain and insert the link. That's how I finally got it to work :D

    Greaper,
    That's a very nice tutorial thumb.gif My problem is that I never get the "Java Application" window asking me to type text into it. I only get the 2nd window, for typing in the url, when clicking the globe/chain icon ne_nau.gif

    But, if I type the word into the post, highlight it and then click the blue globe/chain, I can add the link headscratch.gif

    I think I have most of the java related options turned on/enabled in IE (I don't have Java Console enabled), but I'm not seeing the same set of windows as you guys are rolleyes1.gif

    Andy, with all this talk about how to insert links, did you get your question
    answered?

    You could modify an allen wrench as the photo suggests. Alternatively, you
    could go find a set of jeweler's screwdrivers and modify the one that best fits
    (bend it at a right angle). Like these. But don't spend $50 on them--go to OSH
    or Home Despot for the $10 kind :D

    Ummmm... has anyone here ever successfully bent hardened tool steel at right angles? (at room temperature)

    Exactly the reason I said to get the cheapo ones. They'll bend.
