There have been times when I've wanted to send someone a link to a specific post in a thread, but I've not been able to figure out how to do that. Can someone provide the info for creating and sending a link to a single post in a multi-post thread?
Thanks!

Just copy the URL from your browser and paste is in.

Here are the links to your last 3 posts which are exactly the same:

Sorry, that doesn't work. Try creating a link to a single post somewhere within a thread. Unless I'm a complete dunce, it can't be done, or at least I can't figure out how it's done. Try creating a link to your message, or this message - not the thread. If you can do that, please let me know how it was done.

BTW, I don't know why my message was posted three times. I tried to delete the duplicate copies and the forum software wouldn't let me.

Each post in a thread has a number in the upper right. That number is a link. That link is the one you want to copy and paste.

Oh, why didn't you just say you wanted to know how to href to the html bookmark within a page.

You also do it by placing #n where n is the nth post in that thread at the end of the main URL.

See, both these go to the same post within a thread:
