I just created a thread and when I tried to insert a hyperlink it did not post correctly. Instead of posting the URL as a hyperlink it simply posted
the [url =*]*[/url ]. I tried both typing in the code manually and using the button and both times it gave me the same result.
This is the thread with the problems.
if you drop everything after the article number, the link will work ok. You probably copied and pasted the whole url from the article which caused
that problem.
