On several forums I've visited I see users struggle to understand how to
insert such things as hyperlinks to other sites.
Unfortunately it is very hard on a forum to actually show the code to use
on a forum, because as soon as you type the correct code then what
you are trying to show becomes reality and the other person cant see
how you acheived this... so Ive compiled this page in html so that
you can see what BBcode you need to use.
Please note that not all forums allow all of these codes and there may be
some slight variations accross different forum software.
