Most of the stuff you’re talking about is just a hrefs, when I have to use one I just do a quick “view source” copy one to get the basic structure, paste and replace with my stuff. If I was doing a lot I’d grab a bunch of the tags I use the most and put them in a text file for easy reference.
View source is cool. If only there was a way to copy ONLY the source that you want to view. Instead of the entire page.
