: A HTML link question
: lucid March 20, 2012, 12:11:23 AM
I see many people posting links that instead of being in URL format look something like

DOWNLOAD

 Now don't flip shit yet this isnt a skid question asking "how do I do this!!"
I thought all you had to was put in the code <a href="some url">DOWNLOAD</a> and then the link that I pasted would display as DOWNLOAD only....

That doesn't seem to be the case, I was just wondering what I am missing? I have done this elsewhere and had no problems. Does this have something to do with Evilzone?

Thanks I realize this knowledge is incredibly basic and I didn't expect to be asking a question like this  :-[

This is BBcode not HTML. I am pretty sure it is [ link = URL ]Download[ /link ]

We would never allow HTML,    because then there will be vulnerabilities for things like XSS
