URL connectivity dilemma…
-
Please advise:
The following URLs connect to their respective sites:
http://www.counterpunch.org/macaray09182009.html
http://www.counterpunch.org/whitney07132009.html
http://www.chomsky.info/articles/200909–.htm [n.b.: this URL connects even though the code reads “htm” rather than “html”].
However, when “nested” within the following additional terms–and posted–only the fourth URL connects properly. The third connects to the site, but not the specific location, and the first two do not connect to their sites at all.
Empire: through a glass, darkly
Thanks to all for a remedy to this dilemma.

Once again, with feeling…
[a href=”http://www.empireglassdarkly.wordpress.com/”]Empire: through a glass, darkly[/a]
left and right brackets become < and > respectively

The code for a link is this:
<a href="URL">TEXT</a>Or this, if you want it to open in a new window:
<a href="URL" target="_blank">TEXT</a>Where I’ve written “URL”, you’ve got to paste the exact URL of the webpage as copied from the address bar of your browser. The exact URLs of the webpages you want to link to are:
http://www.counterpunch.org/macaray09182009.html
http://www.counterpunch.org/whitney07132009.html
http://www.chomsky.info/articles/200909–.htmYour links don’t work because in all three cases you have added a slash after html or htm.

Can you explain what you mean by when “nested” within the following additional terms please?
Do you mean, when placed with an [a href=”..”] tag?
If so: you put a trailing slash when you did that. Leave off the / suffix and it will work as expected.
