There should be a button on your toolbar that looks like a disjoined paper clip...that's the link insert button.

Is there some sort of coding to make it just show a persons name but have it linked to their blog?

Well, you could just type in the name - so say you're trying to link to my blog...

You'd type Jaye and then highlight Jaye and click on the link button then paste the url.  It will format Jaye as a hyperlink.

I don't know about your other question.  I've never attempted the signature.

You could just hit the CTRL key when clicking on the link.. That will open it in a new window! Easy as pie!

but i shouldn't have to do that! haha

here's the code, but i had to enter spaces so it would show so don't use spaces except between "a href"

<a href="http:// www.blahblahblah.com/html/html_help.cfm" <b>target="_blank"</b>>click meeeeee< /a>
