These are the details of a question I asked before, but I didn't get the results I was expecting:

I have seen some links in some e-mails where you don't see the actual internet address, but you see whatever name you give the address.
For example, the actual address is http://www.flickr.com, but you don't see this. You see a name highlighted in blue where you can click. How do I do this?

This is basically what I got from everyone that answered:

it's HTML. you'd need to make an html document with the following code (or insert the code into an html-ready page or email):

text to be highlighted in blue

hope that's what you're after :)
(for a web page, the and tags would be at the start and end of the page respectively, so you'd only need the part)

I have done this and it is not working. Do I just put it in the body of the e-mal or what? Can you instant message me if possible?
Thanks.

for e-mail, you type a word that you want the link to be in. so you type the word "pictures", for example. then you highlight the word, and click on the little chain. then a box will pop up and you enter the URL. press okay, then press the breaking or open chain to let the e-mail know thats the only word you want to have a link.

that code is for a web site using html, not an e-mail.

i dont think it's that simple, but in fact the email may be attached a mini css script to prevent hotlink for the links in blue within the email. as to how to do or if i am even accurate.. ask others ;)
