While composing a post...Here's how I do links. While composing a post, you highlight the url you want to link to, and you cut it. Next, you highlight the words you want to appear as the link (turn blue), usually the name of the site. Then you click on the fifth button (in the Compose layout). It has what looks like a single link in a chain over a green dot (next to the font color button, before the left justify button). You will then get a pop-up that says "hyperlink". In the "URL" field, you then paste the url that you cut in step 1. Click okay. Let me know if it works! I still can't figure out how to leave hyperlinks in comments, myself.Carin Siegfriedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07278383926500248048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185363331613787649.post-66011495783811203872010-04-16T07:07:25.433-10:002010-04-16T07:07:25.433-10:00thanks for finding me via the Hop!
