Hi,
Don't know anything about HTML but I can cut and past code if somebody else has written it.
I want to hyperlink text in gallery descriptions that will hyperlink back to 2 other sites.
How can I do this simply?

Thanks, Bob

You can just post the link in as long as you have the use html box ticked, otherwise the code below will add a link with a description,
<A href="link as seen in your browser address bar">Description for link,i.e. Click Here to go to......</A>
In the above example all you'd see is Description for link,i.e. Click Here to go to...... which you can click to go to the link in the first part of the code.

Hi Dave,

I've used your code to link to my blog at www.newyorkcityphotography.org
And to my purchasing galleries at www.bestremera.exposuremanager.com

This is what I pasted into the description with the HTML box checked:

<A href="www.newyorkcityphotography.org">To enjoy more New York City photography.</A>
<A href="www.bestremera.exposuremanager.com">To purchase prints to my sales galleries.</A>

I get an error message stating that there is 'No such user www'.
What did I do wrong?

Thanks, Bob

You didn't specify http:// at the beginning of the URL as you'd see it in the browser address bar.
