Would someone look at my auction #2619246620 and tell me why the post office link I attempted to put at the end of the auction description doesn't "link"? Thanks!

Would need to get into description to see what you did wrong.
The URL is good!
Go in to revise and edit to this:
<A HREF="http://postcalc.usps.gov/default.asp?MT=2&OZ=92549&DZ=99204&P=4&O=&image1.x=24&image1.y=7">Click here for link</A>

Where I put in (click here for link) you can put in what ever you want it to say!

You can, if you want delete yours and copy &paste what I wrote here!

Hi, Dad. . . you're getting to be a member of my family!

I went into the auction to revise it, copied the link the way you had it in your reply here, but, twice, when I pasted it in, the last <A/> bit Would Not Copy! Good lord. I'm flummoxed. But thanks for helping.

I just copied and pasted here.
No reason why it should'nt go into description.

If the </A> is the only thing missing put it in manually.

Try it again from this post where there is no other writing in your way, make sure you get it all.

See you tried something else.
Copy &paste every key stroke above and it will WORK.

Holy cow, Dad. It worked! It copied and pasted correctly this time. It's a miracle! Thank you so much.

Now, I'm going to save the link you gave me and use it in a few other auctions this week. Thanks again to everybody for trying to help this ignorant gal.

See!


The words (click here for link) can be changed to anthing you like, but don't change or space anything else!

That's the truth! I pretty much built my about-me page, and then my website, using htmlgoodies.com.
