    Assuming you are talking about a link to an url inside a html or php or asp page:

    The basic HTML Code for Links is

    Code:
    <a href='http://warriorforum.com'>WarriorForum</a>
    Of course you will want to replace 'http://warriorforum.com' with the Url you want the link to point to.
    And you want to replace the text 'WarriorForum' with the text you want to appear.

    If you want the linked page to appear in a new window you could add the 'target' directive:
    Code:
    <a href='http://www.ibm.com' target='_blank'>IBM</a>
    The value _blank telling the browser to open the link a new browser window.

    If you have any questions please don't hesitate to send me a PM

    Cheers!

    Download the page, zip it up and PM me with the old and new text. I'll give you my email address to send the file to, make the changes and send it back it back.

    1) If you have SSH access to your website, I can have this done for you in a matter of seconds. (check your hosting service)
    2) Likewise, although less desirable, if you have the FTP details
    3) If you are able to download the file and send it to me, I make the changes for you and send it back.

    Out of these, 1 and 2 require you to give me your username and password [PM, please] which you may, understandably, be reluctant to do.

    3 will require you to know how to use FTP which your post says you dont. If you are able to download the file yourself, its simply a case of opening it, searching for the text you want to replace and then saving/re-uploading it.
