Need help inserting Links

Would someone be so kind as to help this HTML illiterate soul and give me specific instructions on inserting hyper-links into the comment section of an image?

What I would like is to be able to enter a link so that it looks something like

HERE

But when you "click" on HERE, you get a new window taking you to the other image I reference in the text.

I've done a search on the boards but haven't come up with anything that make sense to me!

Thanks in advance...

If you click <A HREF="http://www.pbase.com/leandre" target="blank">HERE</A>, you will go to my photo page opening a new window. This simply clicking HERE, the only part visible when HTML enabled.

The addition of </A> open the link in a new window.

basically what you need to type is

Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.pbase.com/">HERE</a>


OR if you want to open a totally new browser window with your link instead of just going to the new page in the current browser window you're using, you type this

Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.pbase.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>


Except obviously you'd include whatever link you want to direct the viewer to where I've written pbase.com ;)

Thank you!
