[DizzyGirl]

OK I is confused totally now 

DS7 came home early from Boys Brigade last Friday night with an upset tummy and looking really pale.. 3 kids in his class went home vomitting on Thursday and more home Monday with the same as DS. Lots of bugs flying around.

Mandi, Look after yourself. Snuggle up with a good book or movie and relax.

And Judy when did you get an iPad? I missed that one.

Thank goodness you have your leg back though Mandi, hope you all recover very quickly.

You didn't miss anything Mandi, I hadn't mentioned it yet.  I've had the iPad a few weeks now, gifted by a very dear friend who stepped up to the iPad 3.  Lucky girl aren't I?  Note I have not asked any questions yet, trying to figure it all out with the help of Mr Google, a bit of fiddling and some advice from SIL when he was down last weekend. I know I only have to ask on here or pm a forum friend to get more answers but one step at a time is just fine by me. Slowly, slowly is the way I am going with it. When I get time I will read everything that has been written on this forum about iPads but at the moment I am happy to be able to do the little I am managing ie access the forum and send & receive emails on it.  DH even picks it up to play the games I have downloaded for him and I have my word games for when I have a minute or two to spare, usually very late at night in bed.

Well I'm glad to know that I didn't miss it. You will get there Judy, new technology takes a little while to get used to. I remember when I first got my iPhone and I got a phone call, I had no idea how to answer it

[achookwoman]

Judy,  when you work out how to link on the iPad would you please teach me?

[dede]

what are you cooking today

[fundj&e]

 

[dede]

Sorry fundj, just working out how to link urls, think I have worked it out. Just got to explain it.

[cookie1]

I still have so much to learn with the ipad. We have just downloaded solitaire. Oh what a wonderful time waster and 7 little words, it is a wonder I manage to put food on the table.

I do hope everyone gets well very quickly. DD had 2 weeks off work and should have had more. When she went back to work one of her friends said 'hello, you need another lot of antibiotics' and promptly wrote the script for her after checking if her chest was still yuk. She tells me he was young and gorgeous too. That is her 3rd lot and she still has a really nasty cough.
She's going to Melbourne to a conference next week, hope they don't throw her out for coughing. She is very disappointed as she had been invited to tour the Peter Macallum hospital ? and has to decline because of this nasty bug.

So my best wishes dede and everyone else and their children who aren't well.

Ok I think I got it, (find your link first and copy the URL)
When replying to a post and you want to add a link on your iPad just go to advanced settings, click on url link
Now delete the http thingy
Paste in your URL you want to add.
Add to your reply. You will see the URL come up

Now delete the first ] and add a =
Now go to the [ at the end of the link and add a ] in front of it. Now add what ever words you want between these brackets ] Here (or what ever[

And it should work.

This is hard to explain sorry

 . . dede?? is this a "virus" ??

[judydawn]

Are you just teaching yourself to do links mandi?  OK, you seem to have it down pat, now can you give us an idea, step by step for dummies. 

[dede]

No it's not a virus, just trying to work out  links

Did the other Link work?

This is what the link looks like before adding the brackets and = in
I hope I hasn't confused you all too much

Actually it looks a bit different before you press send

It has a [URL = at the beginning and a [/URL] at the end

Oh no I am confusing my self

[judydawn]

Sorry, that all went over my head.  I can't even see a url link at the top of my forum page on the iPad so that's what had me scratching my head - how can you copy something that isn't even there.  It is so easy on the PC. (well, once you know how of course).
