How to make a hyperlink hyper ???

[quandong]

G'day all;
Just tried to insert a "hyperlink" into a mesage and it doesn't seem to be very hyper. Don't get me wrong it's there but it doesn't seem to ready to take you anywhere. I know this feature works as I've used it in other peoples threads, but being a relative newby to the b/board Idon't seem to be able to make it work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated .

Thankyou, Quandong. :confused:

Try typing the whole thing in the message (the forum software parses the text as I understand it) eg:

http://www.yahoo.com

You can also cut and paste.

or just type in:

You don't need to put the HTTP part in.
