If I understand you correctly, you want the HTML to make a link.

Let's say you want to make a link to Google (which is at [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)), but you want it to say "Search here". Here's how you would do that:

Argh. The site doesn't like me to use HTML in my column. And it didn't like parentheses, either. That makes this hard. This is my third attempt at an answer, and I'm going to put extra spaces inside each bracket. Just remove them, and the code will work.

I hope this works - if it doesn't, I'm just going to give up.

< A HREF="[Link](Mouse over link to see full location); >Search here< /A >

I hope you're able to read this; as far as I know, HTML shouldn't render in answers. If it doesn't work, I'll fix it.

Another tip: if you wanted the clicked link to open in a NEW window, you'd do this:

< A HREF="[Link](Mouse over link to see full location); target="new" >Search here< /A >

If a semicolon appears in the second example, that's an error; for some reason Advicenators keeps inserting a semicolon. I don't know why.

Good luck!
