I've been testing the html message editor and can't make clickable links within it without including html tags to make the links work. For instance, if I type an URL in the plain text editor like this http://www.ritlabs.com it automatically becomes a clickable link, but to make it clickable in the html editor I have to write the tags like this <a href="http://www.ritlabs.com";>www.ritlabs.com</a>.
The same applies to mailto: links - in the plain text editor they are automatically clickable - in the html editor I have to add the html tags thus, <a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</a> to make them active. Another strange thing is that if I add an URL/mailto: in the html editor and don't show the URL/mail address but use some other text as the link then when I view it in the plain text editor the link is not active. e.g. if I put into the html editor <a href="http://www.ritlabs.com";>The Bat! Homepage</a> then the clickable link will be The Bat! Homepage, but in the plain text version of the mail that just shows as plain text and not as a clickable link as did the URL in paragraph 1. Is this how the html editor is meant to work or not? and why do the links work in the plain text versions and not in the html ones? -- Cheers, Anne The Bat Email - Unofficial Support Forum: http://the-bat-forums.donzeigler.com Testing The Bat! 2.0 Beta/5 on Windows 98 4 2222 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 2.0b4 | "Using TBBETA" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
