page=65">insert title or the word here< /a>
Don't put a space between the less than sign and the slash mark . I had to do that to get the end anchor sign to show up.
Think of your link having 4 parts with no spaces, except one between the a and the h in a href=:
1. Begin anchor < a href=>
2. URL in quotation marks followed by > "http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/690278/posts?page=65">
3. Title (or word/words that will appear underlined, such as here)
4. End anchor < /a>
Note that "begin anchor" is < a href=> not, < a herf>. It tells the computer to anchor the hypertext reference in the text.
Happy linking :)
