Well, it seems that all forums are not created equal!
Some are set up so if you type the http://-yaddayaddadotcom
it will automatically set up the link. (dejanews for one)
Others, like Yahoo chat, let you insert a link just by typing the www.blahblah.com
some boards just don't seem to allow any sort of links in them no matter how creative you get.
Thanks for your help

They might use HTML?

"on a message board"
No, I meant other boards. I realise that UBB works here. I just tried it in "Deja-news" and it didn't work. Not sure why, I notice that others have links in their messages. hmmm

I tried using the UBB code of

perfectshots.com/cdmodels

on a message board, but it wouldn't create the link. It also didn't work in my email either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

You might contact the owner of that particular message board and ask him to turn UBB code on. For help using a sort of UBB code on this board, visit
