Mo says of blue clickies: " ...in the reply box it looks as if it hasn't worked, then when I posted it, it had."
That's right! When you copy the HTML gobbledygook that the Link Maker makes (y'know, the line that starts with the "<" symbol and ends with the ">" symbol), and you paste it in the Reply box, it still looks like gobbledygook. If you want to check and make sure that you really put a link in your message, be sure to check the "Preview" box next to the "Submit Message" button BEFORE you click on the button! That way, you will see your message as it will appear on the thread, complete with link, AND you can click on the link that's IN THE PREVIEW to test it without losing your message! Once you've made sure that everything works, click on the "Submit Message" button without checking the "Preview" box first.
Hope that made sense!
