Can't name a link... This is what happens using UBB/Psuedo... I namned it "Write To Me Here"

[url=http://www.snakepit.org/addr.html]Write To Me Here" target=new>Visit this Website

On the bottom, in my sig, I tried to create the link using HTML. It says "Write To Me Here" but it doesnt display as a link.

Other peoples links display as Visit This Website" if they don't designate a name.

PseudoHTML Quick Buttons - code doesn't work

UBB CODE - Naming the link

{url=http://www.opieanthony.com}Froy's Board{/url}

*replace "{ }" with "[ ]" and you get...

[url=http://www.opieanthony.com]Froy's Board" target=new>Visit this Website


Simple UBB Code names it "Visit This Site"

{url}http://www.opieanthony.com{/url}

*replace "{ }" with "[ ]" and you get...

Visit this Website


HTML - Same Window

Froy's Board


HTML - New Window - target="_blank"

Please read the UBB CODES FAQ as instructed in my post.

Try not to download too much. Steve can't afford it.

Jeff, I looked through the UBB FAQ and I still am confused.

IS there any possible way to use UBB Code and still allow you to put in your own text that you want the link to be shown as. It seems that unless you use HTML the link has to say Visit this Website.

Also, since you didnt link the faq directly, its at http://207.99.78.78/ubbcode.cfm. See? I tried four fucking times using UBB but it doesnt work. I had to use html.

When I click the link it has a part for me to fill in the what I want to title the link but it still comes out fucked up when I post.

Boston, I just fixed your link to open in a new page with target="_balnk"

Boston Buddy, thanks!

That was my whole explanation above. I did it all ways to show them what I meant.

Jeff, I will try to catch you in "IM".

Boston Buddy, I meant thanks as a sincere thank you for reitterating my point.

However, my post was more convincing bacause i presented all 4 options and what it looks like.

Thanks for bringing it to the top and yours is convincing too!


Now, what do you mean by this "IM" thing... One minute I know it, the next minute I don't.

I think you may have me confused with someone else... That Ol' Gag :)

No prob, and I agree that yours was much more detailed. :-)

I understand your reasons for your poor memory with this "IM" thing, I guess.

Boston, I am not positive but, I think you had that guy banned.

Now back to the subject at hand...

I thought the UBB faq was clear..you open and close the url within URL UBB codes. It then take that full URL and converts it to VISIT THIS WEBSITE. It's a temporary solution until I can sit down and really attack the problem. UNtil then, use HTML if you want to name the links.

I guess it's confusing because when you click the pseudoHTML button you think that's the way its supposed to be, and hence, you think it'll work. So, I guess, until you get that worked out maybe you could change the link quick button.

Thanks Jeff, all I wanted to know was that you were aware of the problem.

By your last post I know you are.


Same problem with "naming" email links with Pseudo HTML button / UBB Code, in case you didn't know.

*Replace "{ }" with "[ ]" and you get...
