I will copy and paste code into FR and sometimes the link looks the same, except where it might say "www.aaaaa.com/abcdefg.htm" on the original web page it shows up/translates into FR as "www.freerepublic.com/abcdefg.htm" Therefore, no one can access the link because only www.aaaaa.com/abcdefg.htm exists not www.freerepublic.com/abcdefg.htm. Anyway idea how to fix that? Drives me crazy!

Hmmm. Can't say I've had that happen. It shouldn't do that if you are pasting the raw HTML as text. Unless the FR servers change the links - but I don't think they do.

I've had that happen. That is because the link is relative to the website where it is extracted. That means, the URL addy is assumed.

The only way to correct it is to physically replace the href=".../link.ext with href="http://www.xyz.com/link.ext
