Using 1.06
The Insert hyperlink icon inserts a pair of square bracket tags. [url][/url]
This makes a link that shows only the link, and it opens in a new window.
If I code the html myself <a href="mylink">Click me</a>
I get a hyperlink that doesn't show the url. Which is prettier, in most cases, and usually what I want to do. But it doesn't open in a new window.
But sometimes I want the link to open in a new window. To do this, I would usually type: <a href="mylink" target="New">Click me</a>
But SMF doesn't want to honour this target tag. The link morphs into mylink[/url]%22%20target=%22new
How can I get SMF to honour the complete html link.
Or, alternatively, is there a way to hide the URL under a display text?
Thanks
To display a text, use this:
[url=http://theurl.com]The text[/url]
And it'll open in a new window :)
Yup, that worked. Thanks.
(How to use the square url tag wasn't obvious, at least, not to me.)
You saved the day. :)
You're welcome :)
