When posting a URL how do you make it say CLICK, LINK etc rather than... [url] http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/psa-north-manchester-night-ride-%e2%80%93-this-wednesday [/url]

Or just use the "URL" button at the top of the posting box and insert URL/text as prompted!

URL button doesn't work on some browsers and IMO takes longer to use than typing the code, but then I do a lot of programming so I suppose that depends on the end user.

Type after me, without the spaces....
[ url = http://www.google.com ]Google[ /url ]

This will produce
[url= http://www.google.com ]Google[/url]

URL button doesn't work on some browsers

Which ones? I have to assume it works on IE7, as it would be really daft not to, and it works on IE6, FF and Chrome.

Anyway, the point being you only have to use it once and it provides a template if you so wish.
