Gee, that's a toughie, Darth; I've never had to answer such a question before! Here's the absolutely definitive version (assuming this particular bit of html code works on this site):
"Water, water, everywhere,

Nor any drop to drink."

That should have all the commas, capitals, line-breaks etc of the original. It couldn't possibly be 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, could it? This one really is becoming the new 'gry' question, isn't it?

What I don't understand, Darth (and AB Editor) is why the standard link-code involving < plus A HREF and = plus "URL"> ending < with /A and > doesn't work...at least it never has for me. (Excuse the elaborate layout; you'll doubtless know why it was necessary.)
Quizmonster. I certainly can't explain why -- I can barely switch a computer on, so technically dumb am I -- but if you type in several spaces before pasting in a url then add several more spaces... the site recognises and posts the url as a hyperlink. I add html for a linebreak too for added effect:
http://www.thelinkwouldgohereandlookfine.com
... thusly!
Thanks, Mike, but I did know how to do that sort of link in which all the http and the www and all the rest of the shenanigans actually appear in blue on the page. What I wanted to know was why - on this particular website - the type of link I described earlier does not work.

Using it, instead of writing "click blah blah blah", one can write the code plus 'click' and the single word 'here'. On other websites, that then appears just as "Click here", with the word 'here' highlighted in blue as usual. The actual URL itself does not appear on the page, in other words..
