Site Manager Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 the edit function of BC currently can only cope with 'http:' links, which one are you having problems with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Lowe Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Hi Barry The thread is http://213-04.com/t.asp?Id=119754 The link was http://www.blatchat.com/T.asp?id=112485 But I also had a sig which contained http://community.webshots.com/album/453060832VCZxgn Evey time I went the edit the posting the ] bracket and the HERE moved to somewhere else in the text?????

Site Manager Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 When you create a link using [ url]http://www.example.com[ /url] BC will convert that into the familiar "here" link. When you then edit the post, the editor reads what's in the post and writes it back to you as [ url=http://www.example.com]here[ /url], which is the format you would use if you wanted the text to be something other than "here". As far as I'm aware, the actual link doesn't get corrupted though. Both formats of link can be seen in the faq/smilies link. If you want to re-create the post and link in this thread, please do so that I can take a look at what's happening. Cheers Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Lowe Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 I spotted a Se7en in Helston here whilst down there this summer and my sister, who lives in Coverack says she has seen Se7en's on her rounds (she is a nurse or something), in Ruan Minor and Mullion.

Guy Lowe Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 Barry It seems that when I went in to edit the post I put the syntax back to what it was and deleted the Here but left in the = sign before the =http:// upon saving it put another =http:// in the URL hence the page could not be found. I have left it as it was saved in the post above for you to look at. Sorry Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
