There are some excellent links to other sites being placed on the forum which are greatfully received. For ease of use for other members, for those who don't know, if you run your mouse over the link that has been added to the post (in order to highlight it prior to posting) then click on the URL button above, this will encourage more people to view the link as it wil now be 'clickable' rather than having to copy and paste.
Keep the good finds coming! :thumbsup:

Thanks Barney, i did try this before but it did not work, thus why i never used it again. Or do you have to put it between the url brackets?

It has to be between the URL brackets. No worries if people cant get it to work, i/we can always amend at a later time 🙂

Hi Bruce

If you copy a web address into a forum message e.g.

http://www.bbc.co.uk

(note it has to have the http:// bit on it)

And then click with the mouse just before http:// and hold and then drag to the end of the text you'll highlight it, exactly as if you were applying Bold, Italic etc. in a word processor. Then click the URL button and hey presto, link made.

http://www.bbc.co.uk becomes http://www.bbc.co.uk

Hope that helps.

my orders are to sit here and watch the world go by
