Hyperlink problem

    I am trying to create a hyperlink on one of my posts. When I create it, and try it on my live site, the hyperlink leads to an error. When I checked my url (after clicking on the hyperlink), I see the problem, it is giving me my website url + link url. So it is bringing the hyperlink back to my website, and then going nowhere after that, which is what causes the error.

    When I put in the url of my destination site, my own site url does not show up in the link insertion pop-up screen, so I am not certain why my site url keeps on showing up.

    Hopefully that makes sense. If anyone has an answer for this, that would be great.

    Thanks,

    Gary

    do you start your hyperlink with ‘http://’ ?

    Actually, I have tried both.

    I first started the hyperlink “without” the http://, and then when that didn’t work, I started it “with” the http://.

    When it started with the http://, the hyperlink was not recognized on the live site.

    When I started it without the http://, then the hyperlink started with my domain url, and subsequently returned an error message.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks,

    Gary

    I believe I have resolved this, by simply modifying the link I was given. I was provided with a link code that was behaving very strangely, and have modified the code.

    Thanks for your input.
