Inserting a link

[Grader4me]

Previously when I inserted a link from a website I would just use the "insert link" button at the top then paste into the box. Now when I do this and click on the link that I inserted, it won't work. The only way it will work for me now is copying the link and pasting directly onto here. For example see below.

This works okay, but I was just wondering if I'm doing something wrong.

Okay I figured it out duh..When pasting my link into the box I need to delete the "http://" first or it will give me two of these.

I only ever cut and pasted but I'll give it a try...

CutnPaste works

I'll try this:

Ok, when you open the links box, get rid of the "http:" thats already in the box if you are pasting in a link, then it should work.

Does that help?

I wonder why the genius that designed that upgrade put that "http://" in there? :confused: I've never cut and pasted a link from anywhere that didn't already have it's own "http://" already attached to it. Having to backspace it out just adds another step to the process... :bash

I think the existence of that forum...and the Yeti...is good cause for the US Congress to review their hardline stance on Genetic Engineering:rolleyes::D:Pointhead ...if ya know where I'm coming from:cool2
