How do you do an in text citation in APA format?

I'm using a quote from here: http://www.lenntech.com/water-quantity-faq.htm in an essay. Any help is very appreciated, I'm new to this format ^^'

Cheers.

Update:

Thanks Zach, that's actually quite a useful website (: Is the citation format the same if it's in text? Like when you quote something in an essay and write the source in brackets?

    ^^this little gadget right here is everybody's best friend in high school ;)

    this would be the citation you would get:

    "Water quantity FAQ. (n.d.). Water Treatment and Purification - Lenntech. Retrieved December 31, 2011, from http://www.lenntech.com/water-quantity-faq.htm%22

    i'm not exactly certain how the APA format works, but i'm pretty sure when it is "in text", you put the authors name, and the year it was published inside the brackets, and that's it.
