    I want to create web link that is just the name of the website, not the entire URL, that I can insert into a site.

    e.g. I want........

    www.JoeBloggs.ie

    ...to appear on the screen as a live link that reads simply....

    JoeBloggs

    ...and when someone clicks on it, they're taken to www.JoeBloggs.ie

    How can I do this?

    Thanks.

    D.

    Ps. Hope this is the right forum!

    Assuming it's HTML you are talking about, you'll find examples here.
