clicking of link and accessing of contents after clidking it

Once a URL is posted on our site, we automatically convert it to a clickable link for you. If you are typing out the message on our site, you can click the 'preview' button to see what the post will look like before posting, and the links should work in the preview.

If you are typing out messages in some other text editor, such as Word, then functionality will depend on that software. Some text editors will not allow you to launch websites from inside them. I believe for Microsoft Word, you can hold down the control (CTRL) key and then click the link to open it. I could be wrong, though. I haven't used Word in ages.

yep -- still works in Word...

what's up with that?? .

Sorry. Region
I made a mistake. After typing on a Word document, I can access it with Control and Click key, but not if I tried to post you on another English forum. Could you try and let me know why it can't be done on another English forums, but it is OK on this forum.

tanguatlay, i don't know.
maybe you should pose this question on the other forums...

Hi Region

I was actually asking on behalf of a friend who is a member of that forum. The reply is that they have no clickable link. A member has to type URL, the name of the link, etc before posting the query. Once the reply appears on the screen, the person reading the reply can click on the link and access its contents.
