[href]http://www.google.com >My Home Page<[/href]

http://www.google.com

<a href = "http://www.google.com">My Home Page</a>

Im pretty sure he's reffering to using the bb code on the forums to make a named link, in which case I dont believe these forums support it, but I could be wrong.

Testing...

Darkbasic Pro Site

Ah, I guess it does

Use this syntax:

[ href = URL ] Alt Name [ /href ]

But remove the spaces, replace URL with the URL of the page (make sure you use the http:// prefix), and replace Alt Name with the desired name of the link.
