Insert link (bug or request?)

[Jef Patat]

Hi,

as a new user of BlogDesk first of all I wan't to thank and congratulate you. Perfect tool for my needs!

I don't really know if this is a bug, proplem or request. When inserting a link in a post using 'Insert Link' one has to enter 'Link' and 'Description'. Entering 'http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm' with link and 'BlogDesk' in description results in html code like this:

Code: Select all

<a title="BlogDesk" href="http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm">www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm</a>


while I was expecting

Code: Select all

<a title="BlogDesk" href="http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm">BlogDesk</a>


I do not understand what the use of 'Description' is if one does not see it, nor do I see how to achieve what I would like.

I hope someone can help me out on this.

Kind regards, Jef

You don't have to insert a description. When entered, the description is used as Title tag for the image - most browsers will show this text as a tool tip when you hover your mouse over the image.

I understand, that indeed is the result, but is there a way to achieve what I would like? Because now I need to edit the source code, while this is something which is done frequently.
Wouldn't this be a nice feature?

If you want to link the word BlogDesk to www.blogdesk.org, you have to type the link text (in this case BlogDesk), select it and then call Edit/Insert Link.

Perfect, I thought it was possible. That's exactly what I wanted, thanks a lot for the quick support!
