When I post a message I notice down the left hand side that "HTML is off".

If I want to include a web page link the address appears but you can't click on it to go there, if you know what I mean.

Do it like this anytime (take out the spaces):

[ url ] http:// replace.me.com [ /url ]

It's REALLY important you leave the last trailing / off as there's a bug with the code that buggers up the link.
