Hyperlinks and browser crashes

It always crashes for me as well

ABCtales

OK, the test above shows that hyperlinks will work if you type them in html. The code is as follows (replace the _ sign with a space - I had to replace the space with _ otherwise it would have appeared as a hyperlink!)

what you want to call the hyperlink

Hope this helps

Cheers

Emily

PS: what ISPs are you using, Sigh and Liana? May help our techies fix the problem

Grrrr! that didn't work cos the *&^%$£ computer thought it was code. Mail me and I'll send you the code to use to insert a hyperlink!

I have the same problem Emily but I use netscape not IE. I've noticed that spag,liana and myself all show as 'server.ntl.com' .

My ISP is which.net

I also have 2 other probs.

1) Cannot delete any work. Just get an error message. (can't remember exactly what the message says though)

2) Since I started a 2nd ABC set I cannot edit any work. Where it says "chose which set etc" I do not have a menu to choose from. So I blunder on regardless then when I submit it tells me I'm not the recognised owner of the work!

So folks, I HAVE noticed the typo's in my work, just can't do a thing about them!!

meant to say that I do not get the browser crash but I do not get sent back either.

Liana. I right click the back button which brings up a drop down menu of the last 10 pages I've been to enabling me to skip back to where I was before the story.

This should work in IE.

Yeah I do that now

thanks for all this - I'll get our techies on the case and report back soon

Thanks Stormy. I'll switch to that method from now on.

not too sure if it will work but if you put in http://www.blablabla (whatever the website address is) you shoud make it into a hyperlink and you wuill nit have to cut and paste

only a suggestion - dont take it as bible

Oh well, worth a go........

I wonder if this will work?

[Bad bit of code removed at server side. Please don't do that again, 'cos we might have to disallow HTML linking, which would be a shame...]

*astonished*

stormy ... HOW did you do THAT?????????

stormy stop messing with my mind!

heh heh

can't say or everyone will be doing it!!

ABC will prob delete it lol

~~~I promise not to do it again Ed's ok?~~~

*uncrosses fingers*

sorry

just a little joke

made a few laugh while it was up

including one from me - but you know why it had to go... Although given that you're clearly a bit of a whizz at this kind of thing, fancy building us an avatar based chat room for free? ;-)

LOL emily. I limited it to just two pop ups in the hope it would survive longer. (Fool, you should have trapped them for hours!!!)

Re chatroom: ....ermm. I have been teaching myself HTML and javascript only just recently and I suspect your request is a tad beyond my limited whatnots.

If I can I will, and for free, but don't hold your breath!

*goes off to sneak into avatar based chatrooms to see how they do it*

Please delete the word 'tad' in the above post and replace with phrase 'step in the style of Neil Armstrong'

Thank-you.

First one to name the third man who stayed onboard and what his link to the troubles could be wins erm .... well....that wind up radio thing that never got awarded.

unless that was a wind up

see emily for details.

heartfelt plea to ABC mission control ... PLEASE no chatroom ... this bloody site takes up enough of my time already ...

(but surely there are loads of ways you can attach a free chatroom em's???)

the third apollo 11 astronaut was mike collins.
teacher said so in 'Ancient History' class.

er... the link...
he was hyper.

Soft lad. Yep, Michael Collins ....the man they all forgot. Link is same name as Irish 'freedom fighter'. Hollywood slightly re-wrote history in the eponymous film.

iFB. Yes there are freebies out there and some better ones that are available for 'royalty' fee of $50 per month. I suspect they are all quite slow though when compared with Yahoo chat and cheetachat. Avatar support is a bit tricky.

re: chatroom, I'll see what I can do iFB...

Re: radio, Stormy, it should have been awarded - not my dept but I'll do some digging...

I *really* want an avatar based chatroom though - for all the non techies out there, avatars are virtual cartoon style characters - would refer you to cycosmos but there isn't a UK site for it any more (you could check out the German version at though) In some of the cooler avatar based chat systems out there, you can add in virtual surrounding so the Elf and Unicorn, Ta Chucks and Spags R Us could have (kind of) real locations(giving away my geek obsessions here)

Mental note. Don't try writing html when drunk... the URL I meant is http://www.cycosmos.com
