Hi. It is a little tricky to explain, because it's hard to make your link visible rather than an actual link. But the process is really easy. Here's what you do:

This will be our example sentence: Jim is a big geek. If we want to make the words 'big geek' into a link to my page, you would write the sentence like this:

Jim is a &_lt;a href="http://www.digtialmediatree.com/jim/weblog/"&_gt;big geek&_lt;/a&_gt;.

HTML always has this format. If you wanted to make 'big geek' italic you would just do this:

Jim is a &_lt;i&_gt;big geek&_lt;/i&_gt;.

Or to make it bold:

Jim is a &_lt;b&_gt;big geek&_lt;/b&_gt;.

Or to make it red:

Jim is a &_lt;font color="red"&_gt;big geek&_lt;/font&_gt;.

So, links are made with the 'a' tag (anchor tag) like this:

Jim is a &_lt;a&_gt;big geek&_lt;/a&_gt;.

With the addition of an 'href=' argument (hypertext reference) that contains the URL of the link:

Jim is a &_lt;a href="http://www.digtialmediatree.com/jim/weblog/"&_gt;big geek&_lt;/a&_gt;.

Thanks Bill and Jim.
If it is okay I will try a test (here?) later...

Jim does not seem to be a big geek. But helpful yes, thanks.
