PREVIOUS_POST_LINK question

Hi.

I would like to separately retrieve specific bits from the “previous_post_link” — i.e., the URL of the previous post and the title of the previous post separately.

The help page for this tag only specifies some formatting of the link, which probably means it appears as a link with the title specified.

How can I use this tag to display ONLY the URL and then ONLY the title separately? Any ideas?

Thanks!
