Geek Stuff: Adding a clickable link in your blog comments

Sometimes when I write a comment on a post and want to make reference another post, I want to be able to make that reference clickable. If you want to create a link that people can click on in the Comments section of a blog (or in a post, webpage, etc) it just takes some simple HTML code.

How to create the clickable link

This is what you will need to type:

<a href="URL of the target site to click to">text you want displayed</a>

Example:

If I wanted to refer to this blog post and leave my URL on a Comment page I would type:

<http://geekstuff.allnewadventures.com/2011/11/titbit-html-adding-hyperlink-clickable.html">Adding a clickable link in your blog comments</a>

This will create a link that people can click on to go to this post - Adding a clickable link in your blog comments.
