Something I have just noticed is that if you forget to put http in your url link using the [ url ] tag then it links to a page within hhc.com
eg:
www.underloop.co.uk
Alot of people don't think about the http bit when posting links (I know I often forget to).
Thinking about it, this is probably a bug in my forum too.... DOH!

Carefull nintendo. dont wanna upset people....
Isn't there a way to skip certain things when posting links. i.e not need to type http:// as it is easily forgotten like underloop said.
even if its possible use just the address (not needing the [url]).
it would make it easier. especially for newbies.
Well silver? wots ur ideas....
Think it could work??

Yeah, I knew about that...and what I also know is that Virus often slyly sorts them out, which is a good thing on his behalf.

This is not a bug this is the standard HTML linking method, it does exactly the same thing when you link it without the http on regular linking for example <a href="dog.food.com"> does the same thing you are talking about.

Sorry, "bug" was the wrong word I guess.
What I meant was: Can you put in an
If [first 7 letters of link = "http://"] then
leave link as it is
Else
[remove everything before "www" and replace with "http://]
End If
Sorry, my head is a mush at the moment and I can't remember how to distinguish between ASP, Matlab, PHP, PAL and various other programming/scripting languages :-S

tis annoying.... the way technology is and the advancement of programs you should be able to just type and then an ai determines wether or not it is a link...
well easy

It's built like that for a reason... You might have a file on your computer that looks like this
h t t p ://www.example.com/dog.food.com
thus you will want to link it to dog.food.com (the filename) and NOT h t t p ://dog.food.com
or what if you wanted to link to an FTP site or a mail to link? You need to have em :)
