I haven't used SL or this forum for several months, but I am sure I used to be able to click on links, including slurls. But now they're just plain text with the tags showing.
Is there something I should set up in my profile?

No. It's the Forum. It's got BBS coding turned off. You'll have to cut and paste.

Actually my browser will automatically turn something into a clickable link if it looks like a link (I think), but this editor seems to prevent that by automatically adding tags

Some people seem able to make links clickable.
How, I don't know. |

Hmm not sure faffing about with that is a lot easier than copying the occasional url I want to click on.
Now while I can understand the admins wanting to turn html off if they feel it is producing a security risk, surely in a year there has been ample time to implement some alternative way of showing slurls at least, so that the forum still interfaces with the game properly. |

Some people seem able to make links clickable. How, I don't know. use IMG tags instead of URL tags (the address also has to have a search string character in it, that's a question mark for those that don't speak httpd. if it doesn't have one, tack one on the end and you're good to go.) server.domain/main.html <-- doesn't work w/ IMG tags server.domain/main.html? <-- does work with IMG tags the link for getting the firefox/opera fix is in my sig. (someone feel free to update that with the google chome method) _____________________
