Maybe I'm not understanding your message, but I can read the link. I
just don't know how to access it. Are you saying that I should go to the
end of it and then try clicking on it?
Yes, I know this sounds dumb. Feel free to sigh and shake your head.
Peace.

Sorry Linette, I don't use Thunderbird. Maybe others on the list can
provide the exact steps on how to copy an embedded link from a
message. With that said, if you navigate to the link and open the
context menu, you should be able to find a command that relates to
copying the link. Good luck.

Linette,
HTML emails and web pages can contain hyperlinks to other web pages
or files. The author can assign descriptive text to the hyperlink so
that the recipient sees a meaningful link name in the message or Web
page.
This is a good thing to do as it helps the user understand the link's
purpose more clearly. For example, the link text could be "Click
here to learn more about product ABC".
The author could also use the web page address as the link's text.
For example, the link text might be "http://productABC.com. Not a
good practice but people still do it.
You can activate the currently focused link by pressing Enter on it.
If you want to copy the links address to your clipboard, you can do
so, but the process depends on your email client. In Outlook, after
focusing the link, you can open the context menu and select Copy Link
or something similar.
HTH,
Marc

In some messages, sites are named, but they are not shown as links;
that
is, the http and so on is there, but they be clicked on. This is
probably some simple thing that I just don't know how to do. How can
things like this be put into the browser?
I have the latest version of WE, the latest Firefox, and am
running
Windows on an HP Pavilion laptop.
Does someone need to see the message?
Peace.
