Simple html question

How do I make a link that says a phrase instead of the URL?
I.e. How would I make something say "Click here!" and have it take them somewhere when they click those words?
My, what jumbled sentences.

Umm..... it seems not to be working.
I demonstrate:

<a href="http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/end.php">The end of the world.</a>

That should come out as a link.... right?

Do you want to do this on a webpage or the forum? On a webpage, that works fine. If you want to do it on the forum, you can't use HTML as HTML code is switched off. You need to use vB code: http://www.uk-learning.net/misc.php?do=bbcode (I can't show you an example, cos the board parses the code, but there should be one in there).
