Hi,
When I go to my profile, it says that HTML is OFF, BBCode is ON, and Smilies are ON. Lower down there are radio buttons to alter all these, but only the BBCode and Smilies buttons have an effect. I'd like to alter my sig to have a 'proper' link to my website, ie:

Code: Select all

<a href='http://www.in2faces.co.uk' target='_blank'>Face Painting in Wiltshire - In2Faces</a>

But if I try this, I just get the actual HTML, not the 'interpreted' code. How do I change this please?

Where is says BBCode ON, BBCode is a link to instructions on using BBCode, including details of how to add a link. It is the same syntax that you use to add a link to a message, like this.

Ah splendid my good man, ta very much - I shall have a quick coffe break and see what can be done. So what's next on the Nelz sig then eh? Any computer jokes surrounding November 5th?

It all works like a thing that works really well - Thanks!

What, something like Guy fork()s?

I'm only down the road you know, I can come and hit you in person...

Ah, but if your avatar is anything to go by, I'll see you a mile off

Oh, and the location of LXF Towers is top secret! Forget that address in the mag -- our location is classified, and on Ordnance Survey maps it's just blank...

Yeah? In that case why did I see Nick having a 'meeting' down at the Crystal Palace some time ago. Hmm, perhaps *that's* the real location.

Nah, he was just one from the army of Nick-lookalikes we have, in order to keep the main man safe and secure. Nick himself has left LXF Towers only once in five years -- and that was to collect a distro that fell out the window.

People who look like flowers shouldn't comment on people who wear makeup.
If you'r not careful, I'll ask why Evil Nick picked you for the job.

Guffaw!

Akshully, I do plan to change my avatar when I can think of an even lesser-known character...

What d'you mean make-up? That's what I *normally* look like...
