Hyperlinks in posts don't work all the time

[lnauman]

hello,
I noticed that when I post a photo off of one of my websites, that the page does not always load when you click on the link. I get an access forbidden. It just recently happend here:

http://saxontheweb.net/sotwforum/viewtopic.php?p=183822#183822

If I cut and paste the link that I used in the post,
http://www.lnauman.com/horn_case.jpg , into a separte browser window it will open.

It might be a problem at your end, or I would not be surprized it the problem is with the El-cheapo web hosting that I use.

This has happened before, and the problem seems to be intermittant. :?

It's a problem with your el cheapo webhosting. We occasionally have seen that problem with Yahoo! and others, as well.

You might wish to try typing something like {url=http://www.something.com}My URL{/url} (using [] instead of {}, of course) instead of just typing http://www.something.com

And then PREVIEW the post and test the resulting links.

(PS: there really is a something.com)

So I found out! It changed the way I think...about stuff. Or something like that.
