<title>Inserting a Link in HTML</title>


<p>You can insert links into the email:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Select the text that you want to turn into a link.</p></item>
<item><p>Either click <guiseq><gui>Insert</gui><gui>Link...</gui></guiseq> in the menubar, or right-click on the selected text and click <gui>Insert Link</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter the address in the <gui>URL</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui>Close</gui>.</p></item>
</steps>

<p>Alternately, you can also use the <media type="image" src="./figures/html-composer-insert-link.png" /> icon in the second bar below the <gui>Subject</gui> line.</p>

<p>If you do not want a special link text you can just enter the address of the link directly. It will be automatically recognized as a link.</p>
