I tried several search phrases, but no threads coming back for the webpage editor, hope ok to start here.

I created the first webpage
I thought could create additional pages, and simply hyper-link from the first page to any of the additional pages. What is happening is when I try hyperlink using the link from any of the pages, they will not stick. Once I edit the page, the links somehow are cut in half or changed for some reason.

As an example when I try to use the full link  http://gemstone.smfforfree4.com/pages/gemstone/gemstone-lapidary-jewelry-design-articles-and-documents.php it changes itself to pages/gemstone/gemstone-lapidary-jewelry-design-articles-and-documents.php.

For now I created some additional pages to my blog and am pointing the desired additional pages there.

Suggestions/help? 

Unless someone knows of another way to do this, this is what I did.

First create the page and save it.
Then edit the page.
Then follow what I put here:




you'll get a pop up box.  Do this:




This works but be aware that if you ever go back and edit that page and save it again you will have to do it again.  It keeps changing the links.   I dunno how else to do it.

it is a normal page but for some reason when you save it, it cuts off the first part of the link for urls that exist on the forum itself.   Doesnt do it for external links.     I know,  its a pain if  you plan to keep adding to it.   I just dont know of a setting or any other way to do it  (there might be one that I dont know of)  I dont use webpage editors -  I do it in notepad when I write pages so Im totally lost in an editor        Maybe someone else knows of something in that thing that will stop it from cutting that first part of the links off.

The HTML editor is the problem. It sees HTML and sometimes incorrectly interprets it. When I have a problem in which the HTML editor won't do what I want, I disable javascript then click the "edit page" link and I get a textarea with no editor (the editor runs off of JS.)

What browser are you using? Disabling JS is different for different browsers.

For FF, go to tools-options-content-uncheck "enable Javascript"- then hit ok.

For IE, go to tools-options-security-custom level-scroll to active scripting and mark "Disable"- then hit ok.
