That's nice and all, but the descriptive link option should be the default option. Just typing a url results in a hyperlink, so why would anyone hit a button to do that?

ChadTower:

A lot of forums do that - when you hit the URL button it pops up a javascript dialog that asks you the url and the link text.  Personally I like it better this way as it presents a whole lot less cross browser issues.

(url)(/url)

Now put an equals sign after the first 'url':

(url=)(/url)

Now type your hyperlink after the equals sign:

(url=www.byoac.com)(/url)

Now type what you want to show on the screen in between the two bracketed url sections:

(url=www.byoac.com)Arcade Controls(/url)

It will look like this:

Arcade Controls
