[RESOLVED] What am I doing wrong?

[Kelfresh]

I am trying to help a friend who has a page @ orgsites.

He wants to link to pages on other server's however using the code ...
<a href="http://www.whatever.com"> Name here </a> isn't working ...
The URL appears in Addresss bar but PREFIXED by http://orgsites- blah blah which leads to a 401 address not found

Do I need to add something to Link to switch server / clear address bar to recieve NEW address???

[Scriptage]

Can you post a link to the web page please?

[Kelfresh]

The page where I am trying to post LINK is - http://www.orgsites.com/ca/senioradvocates/

the site we wish to link to is http://invisibleyouthnetwork.net

when the link which is posted about half way down page is clicked it returns this
http://www.orgsites.com/ca/senioradvocates/%22http://www.invisibleyouthnetwork.net/default.aspx%22
and a 404 page not found

[Scriptage]

a href=&quot;http://invisibleyouthnetwork.net&quot;

Remove those and it will work

Thank you Scriptage, that was so simple .... I was always taught to use (") on URL ... so what gives?? & do I need to apply same to Mail Link ... mailto:whoever@somewhere ???

Thank You again ... Your A STAR!!

No problem bud. You should use double quotation marks on all attrubutes bvut you need to use the actual character '"' not a character entity reference '&quot;'.
