Go to your linked page, and "Copy" the URL from the address line.

Open up a "Reply to Thread" dialogue box.

If you want to just post the link, you can just click "Paste." C-D editing code will most times convert it to a shorter line or phrase.
http://www.city-data.com/

If you want the link to be in a word, phrase, or sentence:

Input the word and Select it.
In the icons at the top of the box, below the large "A" that lets you pick font color, you will see a round dot, with a chain link at the lower right.
Clicking that will open a small dialogue box, and that will have a line to Paste in your link.
You need the http://
Click "OK."
Done
"There is a great deal of information available on City-Data."

Thank you MJ. You are the voice of reason on this board. And a thoughtful person to boot. I do not pass out compliments lightly.
