*grin*...I don't believe I have EVER included the quotes in a URL...it really does work without them...Joe Offer has done research on this and thinks it 'may' even be a problem at times..(it sure is one more thing to worry over!)

click me

in any case, the point of the program is to display whatever you type without making a link, and that works fine for lazy old curmudgeons like me who have learned only the basics of HTML
