If you were doing it in html you'd do

<a href="http://www.randomurl.com/">Click here</a>

You just wrap the anchor tags around the word you want to add an anchor to. In the forums it's different though as it uses phpBB iirc

cheers kez, whats the forums one? will that html not work?

[Kezzer]

the forum one is "click here" i think.

[Kezzer]

Whoops, well that worked.

URL with the [ and ] around it is the opening tag. Then do URL="urlhere" (with the [ and ] still)

Then the [ and ] around URL for the closing tag

Inbetween you put the "click here"

the forum one is " i think.
