I am on the staff of a nonprofit that uses WebWiz forums.  To make posts easier to find for our members, I'd link to make a hyperlink alphabetical index in an 'index post' that I create.  Can anyone help?  Thank you!

For example:
http://A%20|%20B%20|%20C%20|%20D%20|%20E" rel="nofollow - , etc...

http://A" rel="nofollow - http://B" rel="nofollow -

Background Check
You get the idea............

Okay - just as a quickie solution, why not try this:

On each forum there is an FAQ section - http://www.fairdebt.co.uk/forum/forum_FAQ.html" rel="nofollow - similar to this - (in your forum folder directory it is called help.asp) you could duplicate the file and name it help2.asp, then adjust the coding (you would have to add the bits into the help_language_file_inc.asp) to make it work though, and then post a topic and link to the newly created help2.asp file

If I had more time I'd give you a proper demo but its time for dinner now - I'll try to come back to you on this over the weekend if you are unsure

MrTWS,

I really appreciate the help.  I can definitely try what you're asking, though I have very low html abilities.  If you do get time over this weekend, or even next week, to provide a demonstration, I'd very much appreciate the help!

Thank you again,

Mike

Hi Mike

As an example (a bit more of a demo) you can http://www.fairdebt.co.uk/forum/help2.asp" rel="nofollow - click here to view a semi working page, which has something similar to what you are looking for. If you wish to contact me by PM I could perhaps design the modification you may be looking for, as if your asp coding is a bit limited, then it might pay you to someone do it for you
I created the file separately but I would tend to actually embed in the FAQ section and just then add in the modified lines - that way everything is on one page, and accessible from the faq link, rather than a post link, if you get my drift

Thanks
MrTWS

Just to add, letters A and B go where they should - I thought it was pointless at this stage creating the other 24 letters LOL
