You can easily copy and paste links, but if you want to be fancy about it and embed your link in text like This:

[url=http://boards.ie]This[/url]

Watch your mouth kid, or you're gonna find yourself floating home. We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyperlinks. Besides, I know a few maneuvers. We'll lose em'!

Select the text you wish to convert to a hyperlink.

Click on the 'Insert link' button on your toolbar.

Type in or paste the URL of the relevant link.

Job done.

But thanks so much for helping me out earlier I do appreciate it:o
