Greg,
You also have mixed tags. If you are going to use the url= tag, you normally are gooing to make a link that contains text of your choosing,
such as this . Don't forget that you can use the built in code by clicking on one of the 10 buttons that appear at the bottom of the message post page. This will open up a pop-up window where you put in the url info and the software then adds the correct tags.
