Can someone tell me how to put this: HERE in my signature line?

It doesn't seem sig friendly.

I'd go with the logo

<b>OR</b>

"*ISR (*as a link to that page): *Crazy?...yes we are.

(*something equally clever or wittty goes here)

Hope that helped.

Edit: Yeah, definitely. Being clear isn't one of your strong points I take it?

Sorry I wasn't clear. The exact text I want to put is: The Space Elevator is coming keep looking up or HERE. Since the sig lines don't take HTLM code, I wanted to know how to code the link in VB.
Thanks

I use the URL vB tags in my sig...

like so: [ url = http://somesite.com/somepage.html]my preferred text[ / url ]
(remove the spaces within the tags, and replace the obvious url and 'my preferred text' parts)

In your case you would add

Code:

 The Space Elevator is coming keep looking up or [ url = http://http://www.isr.us/SEHome.asp ] HERE [ /url ].

(again, remove the spaces)
In your signature textbox within your User Control Panel.

And it should look like:

The Space Elevator is coming keep looking up or HERE

Thats what I needed! Thanks Silvy.

Strange, but when I used [ url = http://www.website.com] it translated to http://http://www.website.com] So, I just left off the http and went with [ url = www.website.com] and that gave me the code I needed.
Thanks again.

That may have something to do with the "automatically parse URLs" thing...
I dunno...

Glad I could help
