Cut and paste

[crapmemory]

When I used to cut and paste links to people via email, it used to be blue and you could just click on it and go straight to the article. Now, for some reason, it just looks like I've typed it in! Any ideas? Please keep explanations simple cos I'm not very tech minded!! TIA
(Did post this in technology but no solution)

The colour is immaterial and preset by the script.
In a mail (outlook Express) it is blue, here on trademe it is red.

You need to make sure that when you copy a link it includes all of the http://www.****.co.uk or whatever and the fullstops are not commas. You also need to make sure that there is a space between the link and any other text.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply but this still doesn't solve it! I have copied and pasted from the browser before where http://www. etc is there but still no joy. I am wondering if there is a setting on my laptop that I have accidentally changed because I can see no logical explanation!!!! :((
