Patrick,

If you want the user to be able to click on the string "www.emtb.com",
then process goes like this.

Step 1. Creating the "Hypertext" character tag.

First, open the Character designer by entering ctrl+d at the keyboard.
Now press, shift+F8 to change all settings to As Is. Go to the Color
option and select Blue from the Drop down list and then activate the
check box beside the Underline attribute in the upper right portion of
the window. Now enter the word Hypertext in the "Character Tag:" slot
on the left side and click on the "Apply" button.

You will now see a dialog box "New Format". Uncheck the "Apply to
Selection" item on the right side and then click the Create button.

This has now added the "Hypertext" character style to your Character
Catalog.

Step 2. Entering the marker.

In your document place the cursor some where in the middle of the
"www.emtb.com" string (i.e. mouse over and click). Now from the main
menu select Special > Hypertext... You will now get the hypertext
marker dialog. Enter the "message URL http://www.emtb.com" string in
the box and click on the New Hypertext marker button at the bottom.
This will now insert the marker where you had your cursor positioned.

Step 3. Applying the blue & underline highlight for the link.

Now, while holding down the left mouse button, drag/swipe over the
"www.emtb.com" to highlight and then release the mouse button. Now
select from the Character catalog (first open it by clicking the
little italic "f" at the upper-right side of the document or Format >
Characters > Catalog) the "Hypertext" format by clicking on it.

You should now see the string in blue with an underline. The reason
for putting the marker somewhere in the middle of the string is to
ensure that you select it when applying the character tag so that it
is definitely part of the active region when converted to a link.

Step 4. Testing the link.

You can immediately test the link by holding down the ctrl+alt buttons
on the keyboard and then mousing over the link. You will see the solid
white arrow change into a pointing finger -- click once on the link
string after you position the pointing finger over the active link.
You should see the active area very briefly flash in reverse and then
your browser should fire up and take you to the link (provided the
marker text was properly entered).
