Hyperlink HELP

Hi,

Does anyone know how to add a text hyper-link in a scratch?

All I have been able to find is this:

a = url

[a=(web address goes here]Text goes here[/a] but I am not sure how to use it can anyone help me out with this by telling me  what function to use or how to use it. the idea is I want to link some of my sprites or text to other web pages.

thanks...
Brent

Re: Hyperlink HELP

You can't link from within a project to external sites yet...
Maybe with the new version of Scratch you could. But it's not out yet.

On these forums, your method is correct. Use
[url=address]text[/url]

It works exactly the same as the HTML
<a href=address>text</a>

(In the forum)
New Scratchers cannot create links or embed images. Just be patient, and keep Scratchin' until you become a Scratcher! Scratchers can create links using the following tags:

[url=http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/]Scratch Forums[/url] produce Scratch Forums
[url]http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/[/url] produce http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/

That is wrong.  A new scratcher can use both those links, as they both link to scratch!  I'll prove it :d


Hey.  It's me SSSS, back from the dead!  smile

Re: Hyperlink HELP

That's correct. New Scratchers can link to project, forum pages and any other link that starts with an http://www.scratch.mit.edu/ using the described BBcode given above!

Re: Hyperlink HELP

Whoops. I didn't mention that New Scratchers can make links that are under the domain *.scratch.mit.edu.
