Personally when using this type of link I find it preferable to make the word bold, it stands out more and should not be missed as bazzerfewi obviously did, if you look at the word "this" in CJT-80 post you will see it is not much different to the surrounding text.

and mine ;)

Thanks everybody, your coments are much appreciated.

I have attempted to read the consultation and a lot of it  beyond me. Does it mean that 0800/0808 numbers to mobiles are under consideration and it may be FREE to ring 0800/0808 number from mobiles one day

Looks more like a dirty brown as the quotes can be seen,(they are definitely 2 different shades), I was only suggesting that making the link word bold does make it stand out, bazzerfewi had missed it and I doubt they would have done had the word been in bold  :)



Even making it bold from the original post it is still not [color=#ff0000]RED[/color]

Let's test it out:

There's this excellent site called SAYNOTO0870.COM

and again with the link in bold:

There's this excellent site called SAYNOTO0870.COM

Try using lower case and a 4 letter word instead of 14 like the post  mentioned and as can clearly be seen in my post above with the quotes

.

Make them bold if you want, but they're fine as they are for me. I clearly saw the link in the original post.

Ok,

See how that works.....

Sorry to cause such a fuss folks, I do miss things but that is because I only have one good eye and if I read quickly and do not check it I have a tendancy to miss things.

Didn't mean to cause a fuss, but there may be some members that cannot see as well as me and may be they could have a problem.

I agree with Baz. I imagine that is possible for forum admin to amend the style sheet, but in the meantime we will have to embolden our link texts - remembering to put the b tags inside the url tags, as follows:


Code (][url=link url):

link text[/url]

This is exactly the same as with the <a> tag in html.

The forum has now been updated so that links appear in bold.

Indeed it has!
