    link error

    I'm getting a weird link error on my website in the news section. I used the following...

    <A href="www.surfsimulatorshawaii.com" TARGET="_blank"><font color="#FF9F00">www.surfsimulatorshawaii.com</font>

    It wants to open, http://www.flashpulse.com/www.surfsimulatorshawaii.com . All my other links are setup the same and work fine. I've tried removing the link and saving the fun file then re-entering it. But it always does the same thing.

    I assume there is a </A> at the end. I would also try putting http:// in the href.

    add the http:// what's happening is it's opening a relative link instead.

    Yes, adding the "http://" fixed it. I can not believe I overlooked that. I have been over working my mind the last few weeks. Thanks blanius and Bob!

    dude been there sooooo many times. Just ask Bob or Wilbert, every time I think I've found a bug turns out it's me overlooking something obvious. (well most of the time)

    Yeah, I do that from time to time. Usually when I work on a project or something, I start staying up late and it eventually gets the best of me. I need to learn to take breaks.
