Hyperlink in Outlook Express

[junk4narf]

Hello,
I'm using OE 6.0.
Does anyonw know how i can add a link in an OE message, that "jumps" to a different place in the message (like html #'s)?
I've tried using Word as an HTML editor, and making a hyperlink there. But if I "copy-paste" it to OE, or use OE's "Insert/Text from file" it show's up as a hyperlink (blue and underline), but clicking on it doesn't send you anywhere

I've been told that in Outlook it works, if you use Word as your editor, but I couldn't get OE to use an external editor.

Thanks in advance,
J4N

try using a bookmark instead

OE doesn't have that option.
(couldn't find it in the help file)
and when copying from Word after using a bookmark link, it didn't work...

You're going to need to edit the true HTML from within OE. Start your new message, then from the View menu, select 'Source Edit'. Now you'll have 3 tabs at the bottom of your OE new message window. The middle one is 'Source' where you can correctly edit the source code to use the HTML anchor tag and name attribute hyperlink.

in OE6 use the Source View option and create an html file.
place the below into your message and it works


<A href="#jump_here">Jump Here:</A>

Put message body here

<A name=jump_here>jump here</A>
