not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I can never get this thing

[url (John then insert "equals" using = buggershitbum (that being the URL)]Try this[/url]

sorry, I don't get it ... missing something and its probably very simple ... can you show me what you would have to embed the forums homepage, without actually embedding it? It would be appreciated.

There's no equals sign. Just paste your link. Leave a space. Write your text. Select it all (link, space and text) by holding down left mouse from beginning to end. Then click on 'Insert Hyperlink' at the top left of the post tools. That will automatically print the [url] [/url] around what you have highlighted.

It is still pretty dicky. Jumps around a tad before settling. Easy to tell Mr Smith. Just try to link any of your other favourite sites, and if they all fail....then it is your problem, But if they fire..............it is a problem here.
