I would like to put a link on my homepage that allows people to click on it to view shipping cost. The link is located below. Does anybody have any suggestion on how I can place this link on my homepage (preferrably in my bio).

I don't know what your site looks like or how your bio is configured, but the way I'd do it is using an href.

basically you'd want to write something like this:

Thank you for your interest blah blah blah to view shipping rates just click here <---- the here would be hyperlinked using the href code.

<*a href="http://www.smugmug.com/prints/shipping.mg (http://www.smugmug.com/prints/shipping.mg)" TARGET="_blank">here</a*>

just remove the *'s to make the code work.

Remember that the code replaces the word "here" in your statement.

Where do I place the code you gave me. I tried putting that in my bio and and I couldn't get it to function. Should this be placed in the CSS? Here is what I tried.

Thank you for your interest blah blah blah to view shipping rates just click here <*a href="http://www.smugmug.com/prints/shipping.mg (http://www.smugmug.com/prints/shipping.mg)" TARGET="_blank">here</a*>

I didn't get any results. My webpage is pretty simplistic.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Ahhh I see what you want to do now.

I originally thought you had a seperate bio like on my site, but you were talking about the bio on the homepage.

I'm not sure how to activate html within the bio as I've never done it myself.

you could try adding HTML tags in the bio box. the very first line in the bio box will say <html*> and the very last line will be </html*>


so it would look like this hopefully....

place this in your bio box:

<html*>
