Written by Gladstone Taylor

The Tech.in876.com forums use's bb code mark up to display urls. Example bbcode for url is

[url][/url]

To insert a url to another site you place an =sign after the word url in the first bbcode tag and assign the address of the site to the url. Example: linking to another site (http://events.in876.com). We do this by

[url=http://events.in876.com]whatever text you would like to display[/url]

*note I used http on the url. This is absolutley neccessary for the link to work properly.
