[kwlug-disc] Can someone help?

Thanks but I knew the <link tag wouldn't work; it can only be used in the <head></head> section.  As for the <a> method, I may be recalling it wrong but . . . it doesn't matter except as a memory exercise because I can't do it now.  I have no choice other than to confront what is.

I bet you're thinking of the <link> tag.

And don't use that :).  Use john's method.  Anytime I've investigated 
using the link tag, it's not been up to snuff.

The <a> tag won't work, that's for anchors. Or 'links', which is 
probably why you are attributing the link tag to the anchor tag.
