[SOLOtsofBangers]

[Mhamai]

[SlartyBartFast]

shall i tell?

[VineGuyFawkesFeltMyTits]

Aww ok then

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by and . So if you type www.mumsnet.com, the link will display as www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at this page", would display "Look at this page".

You can find this under the smileys on the bottom right hand said of your page btw

[SlartyBartFast]

actually the one i did earlier i did wrong
well it was confusing.
i linked the thread i was on to the current thread,

[SlartyBartFast]

oh so did vinegartits, only on purpose

[VineGuyFawkesFeltMyTits]

opps x-post slarty, i would have held out for a while if i had seen yours first

[SlartyBartFast]

hint - you have to have both threads open at the same time, well not really, but it is easier i find

[Mhamai]

I mean in simple language not ikea instuction language. Soupy showed me how to do the old stylee links in dummy language and it worked. I want dummy instuctions!
Please?

[SlartyBartFast]

you know how to insert a link?

[Mhamai]

The old way.

[Mhamai]

I can't open two windows and I got a 2:1 in my IT module of my degree earlier this yr.

[SlartyBartFast]

i don't understand "old" way -
i press control v, or the copy button on the thread thing at the top of the page, and then control c, or paste, with these surrounding it.
any good

[VineGuyFawkesFeltMyTits]

ok first highlight and copy the link to the thread you want to link to(hint: just copy the address bar)

then insert 2 of these [

then paste your link

then type a space, then type 'here'

then type 2 of these ]

so it should look like this:

link here

[Mhamai]

Ooh sorry, not meaning to ignore you, will come back and do it shortly. Ta muchly btw.

[Mhamai]

Soooooooooo how do I get a thread in a thread to a thread. I'm not making this up and my head is starting to hurt.

[SlartyBartFast]

pah even I don't understand my instructions!
vinegar is so much better

[SlartyBartFast]

can you open both at same time?, have two tabs?

[VineGuyFawkesFeltMyTits]

no probs, i can do links to email to, like this

[Mhamai]

Think I can do the link to link but not the link to link to lik. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[Mhamai]

Ooh feckin showoff

[SlartyBartFast]

so why would you link to email {envy]

[VineGuyFawkesFeltMyTits]

Slarty, your link should automatically open a new page, if not just right click on it and choose 'open new page' or 'open new tab' from menu
