I need more web address characters within my answers?
I would like to know how do I post a long web site address within my answer to a question. Example: I try to put http:// xxxxx etc. with over 40 characters. The characters will turn blue, but yahoo answers will drop characters off the web address when I submit my answer. If I click on the web site address, the web site will not pop up. Is there a way to put up more characters, or is Yahoo Answers limited to under 30 characters?

Even if the link appears on the screen 'truncated', it still should work. Mine do:

That link should take you -- right to your question.
Right click on it and open in new tab/window and you will see it worked correctly, even though it is longer than 40 characters and appears on-screen truncated.
