Simple UBBC to HTML "Translation" Request

[Damsel in Distress]

Dear Experts,

I have what I think is a very simple request. Please forgive me if the answer is already posted. These forums are so extensive, I don't have the time to thoroughly review them.

I know this UBBC code (shown in an "example" form):
[url=http://the_actual_url]Name of Link[/url]
What is the equivalent coding for this in HTML? (I want this kind of link in an HTML table I've installed on my forums.)

Thank you very much for your reply and rescue of a "damsel in distress."

Sincerely,
Damsel

this would be more of a coding question, but I am more then happy to answer

so linking o another page is what you want? This is what you'd want:

<a href="http://the_actual_url" target=”_blank”>Name of Link</a>


the stuff in RED isnt needed, so you can delete it if you want. but by it there, when the link is clicked on, it will open in another window/tab.

best place, imo, for simple HTML questions, is www.htmlgoodies.com
