i searched the forums and found two posts

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16199&highlight=hyperlinking

and

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9690&highlight=hyper+linking

but when i tried that here

can someone explain? has it nething to do with ur browser?

i m using xp pro sp2 and firefox !

well let me make it clear to you
this forum and many other forums will understand BB code
while a site other than a forum i.e a web page etc
will understand html etc
example :say i post a hyperlink for M$ here

Microsoft
for the above i have used Bbcodes
i.e this
Code:
[url=www.microsoft.com]Microsoft[/url]

now i want to show this hyper link on a website other than a forum

Microsoft
well obviously it wont show up here as this board does not understand Html

so by that whenever you want to post a hyper link
at a forum you will strictly have to use Bbcode
and while you are on a website other than a forum
you will strictly have to use HTML

i.e both dont understand each other

Forum:dont understand html ,understands bbcode
website(other than a forum):dont understand BBcode ,understands Html etc

hope you got it :)
