    "selectable text" it means that you can use the mouse right button to cut,copy or paste portions from that text.

    Go to the KoolSource link in my sig and then go to "Links". There you'll able to click on links in a textbox to open webpages.

    Is this what you want?

    If you have XP SP2, that might be the issue. I plan on redoing the site becuase of this. But here you go.
