This thread is the reason I ask:

/327/7a/206885/1.html

The 1st post in it has a working url in it. It's underlined in blue, and when you click on it you go there.

How'd they do that?

When I entered the above url, it got surrounded with the vB url code, which of course, doesn't work.

Is there some magical way of entering a url in this forum that allows the url to work?

You mean like this:

Murhahaha! I'm sworn to secrecy

Ok I'll sing like a canary, use the img tags and put the url inside those.

I hope LL doesn't disable Img tags now that you've uncovered that. :(

Ah it wasn't me who uncovered it, someone else tipped me off!

Lol they better not, it's really annoying not having the code working here as it is.

If you use Firefox, you can also use the Greasemonkey BBCode emulation script Strife has stickied at the top of the forums.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

That 'sticky' now says that with firefox you can simply use the addon Linkification. I just installed that, and wow -- all the things that are supposed to be links magically became real links.

Thanks!

I tried Linkification and, I have to say, I prefer Strife's script...no ugly tags.

Edit: Oh, not the JIRA thing Torley has listed. This: /327/b2/188445/1.html
