Trying to post a link using

Normally, you hit URL button, Paste the URL, Click OK, Paste Text, Click OK.

Having trouble with the following. First line is what is entered and next line is what gets entered as the url. Any ideas ?

I'll send it to my son the network administrator and see what he says. You might get a faster answer here tho. He's in Iraq!

Thanks MG, Seems to be a forum thing though.
Works on the address bar, just not in the URL link.

Let me give this a try. Does it work?

Nope.

Puppy,

It's probably a security mechanism so that forum users can't embed nasty javascript code on the page. I would do the same if I were writing a forum product to be used on the internet. Javascript "viruses" can be just as nasty as the current crop of virii floating through people's email boxes.

Hi Grizzly.

Yea, never thought of that. I'm sure you're right. Thanx.

Puppy, those kind of javascript URL's will never load when they open in a new page. Never Ever!


The only way to let ppl open them (since UBBCode automatically opens a new page) is to leave instructions for them to *right click* and *copy shortcut* into the address line of a new browser.

*Edit - I know this coz I have 2 boards of my own and one uses BBcode. So one will open javascript links on the existing page and the other wont.

Thanks Lexie.

Two boards? Busy Girl!!

One isnt operable yet - baby stages.

The other is a speciality board and doesnt neen alot of work or time. I have a great bunch of ppl that help maintain it.
