The interface in the dashboard is much more robust than the response box that comes up on the main board.

As familiar as I am with the bells and whistles, it’s rare for me to finish off a post or comment without having to tweak it at least once, and sometimes several times.

Like Tom said, just a simple html reference tag.

Text goes here

Be sure to use quotes around the URL.

We used to have an intro to html so people could mark up their posts. Hasn’t been around since the First Zone.

It’s erratic.

Most of the time I insert the HTML code manually, like in the old days.

I often have to re-edit in the more robust “comment edit” window to get all the features I want. For example, the paragraph commands (p) never stick if I insert it directly in the first comment window.

Sometimes they’re underlined, but that feature seems to come and go.

I started putting -dashes- around links (the underline command doesn’t seem to work), but I admit I haven’t been very consistent about it.

I follow up the steps in the little app or wizard (similar to the way you insert an image) that pops up when you click “link” but it never works for me.
