Do you mean you're trying to post that as a link on the forum? It's not actually a link, it's a whole section of HTML code (a form). It'll never work, the forum won't let you execute HTML in case you're a naughty hacker trying to make it do bad things

Ooh, it's gone in the time it's taken me to type this

Got it....go to the page that the code links to, copy the address bar and put it in as a link, just as i have above.

You don't need the code you need the destination

As we found out that Rubbish, as it worked for me but no one else, reason is it is an encrypted connection using the security certificate from my machine, won't work for anyone else.
