“From what I can tell, any other html in a post kills the clickable link.”

Ok ... THAT’S bizarre.

Thanks anyway! Now I know.

I don't think anyone else addressed your question on this thread, and you may have got this worked out yourselves, but it's NOT bizarre.

The relevant HTML interpretation rules for FR posts are sorta like this:

1. If NO HTML tags whatsoever appear in the text of the post, then it is assumed the poster doesn't know (or doesn't want to bother with) HTML, so a little automatic formatting is done on their behalf:
   • blank lines are converted to paragraph breaks (that will appear as blank lines)
   • words beginning with "http://" will be automatically turned into clickable links.
   • ...

2. But if ANY HTML tags appear in the post text, then it is assumed that the poster knows HTML, and wants to control their own destiny. Thus:
   • blank lines are compressed to spaces like normal HTML
   • you have to make your own clickable links, by putting in your own anchor tags:
               <A HREF="...">...</A>
   • ...

Simple as that. For more info:
