OK, how do I do a link?
This should be the HTML version:
<a href=”http://www.patheos.com/community/catholicportal/2010/07/06/the-pill-toxic-sin-against-gaia-and-god/”>Here.</a>
and this should be the BBCode version:
[url=”http://www.patheos.com/community/catholicportal/2010/07/06/the-pill-toxic-sin-against-gaia-and-god/”>Here.</url>

Welcome to the forum, Pink Pig. Activation of links is automatic if our software can recognize the URL as a URL, so you don’t have to do anything but give the URL a space on either side. I’ve set the citation up for you below:
As expected, it took the tact that the Pill “helped women take control of their livesâ€.
http://www.patheos.com/community/cathol … a-and-god/
(Btw, we use Textile for formatting—if you click on the Textile button right below the “Post” window to the left, you get a quick rundown of the basics in Textile.)
Tack>>tact is a great eggcorn, but it’s something of a venerable classic at this point. Here’s the link to the Database entry: http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/english/51 … h/76/tact/
