Forum Code
For security reasons you cannot use HTML tags in your forum messages.
However, you can use Forum Code tags to accomplish the same rich
formatting that HTML provides. Forum Code is similar to HTML in
usage and as such is very easy to learn. Below each of the Forum
Code tags are explained with examples.
Hyperlinks
You can easily add a hyperlink to your message by using the [url="linkto"]
description [/url] tags.
Note: You must use the exact syntax [url="linkto"]
description [/url] in order for your hyperlink to
be converted properly. Variations such as [url=linkto]
description [/url] and [url]linkto[/url]
will not work!

This Example:
Take me to [url="http://www.www.masjids.org/Greenbriar"]The
The Islamic Community Center Discussion Group Web Site[/url]
Outputs This:
Take me to The The Islamic Community Center Discussion Group Web
Site

You insert an email link by using [url="mailto:address"]
description [/url] tags
|
This Example:
If you have a question [url="mailto:bob@company.com"]Email
Me[/url]
Outputs This:
If you have a question Email
Me
