When I paste a link into one of my answers, why doesn't it work?
Recently I was contacted by a person whose question I had answered. He received an error message when he clicked on the link in my answer. I sent the link to him. It worked.
I pasted a link into another of my answers, submitted the answer, and clicked on the link. I got another error message. I deleted the http;// so that people could copy it, paste it into their browsers, and end up on the right page. I have, however, at least sometimes been able to click on the links in other people's answers and get to the page. Therefore, I think I may be doing something wrong. I would appreciate any ideas anyone might have.
