yes, it does

you have to put a ] after the url, and then something before the [/url]

but, getting back to the question in the OP, that link doesn't fit the context of the Cox citation, at all.

Well thanks Buff I guess it worked although the result isn't quite what I had expected

again, just another typo for nascent, I fear.

Well Buff I fixed it--somewehat haphazardly to be sure--but page 1 is still too wide. Evidently we're hopelessly at the mercy of Bill--or is it Mac

However the "Something" link is not quite what I had expected. Normally when I copy a url from another web site the AWAD algorithm automatically curtails it if necessary, inserting a surrogate carriage return ostensibly to prevent the "widening" effect but maintaining its appearance as a url

So forgive me Buff but based on the assumption that I had copied or pasted the url too hastily or made some other sort of mistake, I went back to the site and very carefully copied the url once more which I am very gingerly pasting below with the utmost caution



Edited to remark that, well, it didn't work this time either; I really did mean well with my most sincere apologies for my lack of skill. Perhaps you can suggest some means before copying and pasting by which I can eaily identify a url as substandard or beyond the capability of the AWAD routine to process and a means to quickly and easily modify it into a more nearly acceptable form. Thank you again for all your help and patience

As the intricacies of negotiating the algorithm apparently buffalo many of us (Shrd forgive me), I have largely rephrased the knotty conundrum, hoping Admin might be more familiar with it and quickly offer its resolution:

I'll add an a no-answer answer. Hopefully it will turn the page so this will be slimmed down again. The topic is lost once more in Dale's hypo-linking.
