How do you select a desired web page from its link in your HTML doc? Do you cut and paste it into the address bar of your browser, or is their an automated way to achieve the same effect?
Ok, with HTML 5 it's a bit easier to type up an HTML doc that will load into a supporting browser.
You open a text editor like notepad and type:
<html>
<title> links</title
<body>
<p>
<a href="XMTS address on the web from the address bar is copy and pasted here">
X Marks the Scot Home Page
</a>
</p>
</body></html>

I don't want the VB program to put url tags on the address so I didn't put it in there.
You could copy and paste that code into a notepad file, then change the end tag of the file name ".txt" to ".htm" or "html," and it would open up in your default browser with the link displayed as the text "X Marks the Scot Home Page" a lot like using the url tags in a post here on the forum.
You can make lists of these links or arrange them how ever you want with different HTML tags and so on.
I hope that made some kind of sense, I know I don't explain things well.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
