melisb, here are some instructions I found online.  I hope they aren't confusing to you.  Basicially, you are copying and pasting the link over to your post.  You can check to see if the link is correct by previewing your post.  This is a good place to practice.  Try it as many times as you like. I'll be glad to help you and I'm sure others will too.  I remember when I first learned to copy and paste, and it was the start of learning new skills.

How to Copy & Paste a Link
 ::snipping2::
Instructions

        1

        Move the cursor-using either the mouse or touch pad-to the end of the link. It doesn't matter whether it is at the beginning or end of the link.
        2

        Hold down the left button on the mouse or touch pad and drag the cursor over the link; this should highlight it. Release the left button; the link should remain highlighted.
        3

        Copy the link by clicking the right button and selecting, "Copy." You can also copy with the keyboard by pressing the Control ('clrt') button and 'C'. Mac users would use, 'Apple' and 'C.'
        4

        Move the cursor to the location where you wish to copy the link.
        5

        Paste the link by clicking the right button and selecting, "Paste." You can also paste with the keyboard by pressing the Control button and 'V.' Mac users would use, 'Apple' and 'S.'

Sorry Muffy...maybe I misspoke.  I'm not sure what it is you want me to bring over.  Do you want what I am looking at in the browser that brought that is that pages address?  I've tried to highlight what is in my browser and for some reason couldn't get it to copy.  I will keep trying.  That is why I try to put where I got the info like this am was from the IDS.com articl but I couldn't get it to copy. Dunno if it's some glitch or I've done something wrong.  Will keep trying cause sometime I'd like to post a little more but can bring things over that is needed.

Hi melisb! I'm not Muffy, but perhaps a picture will help. This is the link, on this page, that would need to be copied. Anytime something is brought to this forum from another website, the link we request will be found in the same location bar (while you are on the site you want to copy for us.) Just look up at the bar when you find something, copy it, then come to SM and paste it in your reply post window.

Hope that helps!

Thanks CBB.      I noticed melisb posted using a link yesterday on June 11th, so she either figured out how to post a link, or some kind monkey helped her: http://scaredmonkeys.net/index.php?topic=10312.msg1389015#msg1389015  We can still use the excellent illustrations and instructions you've posted, because I'm sure the question will come up again.

Another trick when posting URLs.  Often if it's a long URL and often when Twitter URLs are posted they end up being broken or truncated.  To fix this all you have to do is after pasting the URL in your message box, highlight it then click on the INSERT HYPERLINK icon   above.  That will insure that the URL will work and not be broken.  Here is another short video to show you how.


<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="179" data="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=71377" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"> <param name="flashvars" value="intl_lang=en-us&photo_secret=8ee6b50d6c&photo_id=5696533436"></param> <param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=71377"></param> <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=71377" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="intl_lang=en-us&photo_secret=8ee6b50d6c&photo_id=5696533436" height="179" width="400"></embed></object>

HOT DIDDLY DAMN!  I finally 'got' where the darn icon is...on SM and not on the twitter page

Just trying to learn how to post.  I joined almost three years ago and followed the Caylee Anthony case with everyone.  I was so angry after the verdict but wasn't sure how to post.  So, came here to try it out!  Sorry....

This is a great place to learn how to post or to check out forum features.  I think she asked what you were testing so she could offer assistance.  Don't be sorry.  Come back and post!
