Henri Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 I have noted htlm reference to postings in other threads in some postings. How does one do that? The IP number at the right bottom of each message is restricted to forum administrators, but I have seen it done by people who are not identified as administrators of the forum.

109 Gustav Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 Each thread has it's own unique URL. Just go to the post you want to refer to, copy the URL, and paste it into your post. For example, if I wanted to refer to this thread, I would copy and paste http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/Forum7/HTML/000471.html That is a link to this thread. ------------------ Well my skiff's a twenty dollar boat, And I hope to God she stays afloat.

Guest Der Unbekannte Jäger Posted January 23, 2001 Share Posted January 23, 2001 -Check which thread you want to refer to. -Right click on its link. -Select properties. -Then look at the Address/URL line. -Highlight this text and hit the "CTRL+C" combo. -Then make your message and press the "CTRL+V" combo and presto it spewed out the URL into your message in the works. Or alternately you can: -Find the thread you want to link to. -Right click on the thread and select "Copy Short Cut" -Then start making your message and press "CTRL+V" combo and voila. The CTRL+V can be substituted for a right click and a paste command as well. Same with copy command. ------------------ "'S muladach ma theid ar sgaoileadh..." -Duncan Ban Macintyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
