[support] how to add links as content types or nodes?

[Laura Scott]

In Drupal 5, you can do this with CCK modules and views. Create a  
content type, add a URL field (which I believe is a supplementary  
module for CCK, downloaded separately), and then create a view to  
display. It may be more gears and levers than you were hoping for,  
but it does allow for a lot of granular control.
