I have found some sweepstakes and would like to post them with the links here. But I do not know how to do that. If someone could tell me how step by step I would be more than willing to share. Thanks pattirat

Hi,

You can post the complete links. You'll find at the bottom of your post under "options" that there is an option "Automatically parse URLs". This option will automatically convert all links to clickable one. Just type the complete link as for example:

http://www.online-sweepstakes.com

Manually, you could add "[url]" (without the quotes) at the beginning and end of the link. Even if you don't follow the automatic or manual options described above, we can always copy and paste the links to the browser (the same you would cut&paste links from your IE/Nescape browser to this forum). Either way you are fine.

I've been able to post the links by just starting www. without the http. Just make sure you leave the proper spacing before and after the link so it can pick it up, then try your post after you put it up. If it doesn't work, then you can click 'edit' at the bottom right of the post to change it.

You can also type the sometimes lengthy Internet address as listed on your bowser.

Hope this isn't redundant or confusing... :rolleyes: :)

Ok I think I am a little stupid when it comes to things like this. I know I could type the link in . what and how exactly do you cut and paste that way sounds easier. remember step by step.....Pattirat

to copy and paste...for windows users:

left click to highlight the web address then right click the highlighted portion and select "copy." This will copy from anywhere. When you want to put it in a new location, right click and select paste from the menu.

I frequently find it easier to use control c for copy and control v for paste after highlighting.
