Now we're getting fancy. Here's an update to
Friday's post about putting a link in a Blogger comment. As
Marianne Post pointed out the code I demonstrated opens the link in the same window - thereby losing the page we're on, and we don't want that.

I just added a link to a post, but it seems to do what "we don't want," i.e., take us away from the page, rather than opening a new tab. I'm clearly going to have to work on my linking skills at some point. There's so much I don't know about blogging, even the basics.
Hi Jean,
Thank goodness that it isn't the end of the world if something isn't linking properly. I find that it can be tricky - especially when the code isn't visible to see what the mistakes might be!
The information here is great. I will invite my friends here.
Thanks
this is very cool! thanks so much I've been looking for an easy way to do this!
