So I don't know how to hyperlink...

Even a caveman can do it!

HTML Sandbox 2015.
How to create a link:
<a href="http://www.freerepublic.com/home.htm">www.Free Republic.com</a>
A means anchor. H ref means horizontal reference. It's called horizontal because the computer is going across the web to a different page. There are also vertical links that can go to specific points on the same page. What comes after the a href= is where the computer will go. The horizontal reference is the complete URL of the page you want to link. It's in the navigation bar at the top of your web browser. Highlight it and copy it. Make sure you get all of it. Some URLs are surprisingly long, and if you miss some of the URL, the link might not work.
You can type anything between the <a href=></a> parts.

You can make an HTML text file with the commands you use in it if you want.

Hey, philman, how ya doin?’ I remember way back in 2000-2001 you twisted my arm for a year to learn some HTML. lol

I finally broke down, found out how easy it is and I’ve been posting links and pics like crazy ever since. ;-)
