Hyperlink

firefox13

Hi
I am down the track with my transition. One problem I've encountered is that on my legacy site gallery http://www.pcpimages.com/Travel/Mt-Kilimanjaro-Africa/8270169_QHRRpJ#!i=536815003&k=MBKb8zD
there is a link to a journal. The words are in the description on the new site but the link is not working?
Any fix for this?

Thanks

The new SmugMug's HTML parser is truly horrible. In particular, if you wrap an <a> tag inside another tag, like the <big> tag you have in your legacy gallery, it will cause the link to be converted into plain text instead.

One tag it *does* allow you to wrap your links in is a <div>, so you could replace your old gallery description:

<big>Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa with my daughter Justine in 1999.</big>
<p style="color:red"><big>Click if you would like to read my <a href=" https://www.dropbox.com/s/b8gxy1z0nnyn227/Kilimanjaro%20climb.pdf "> journal of that experience</a> Click on browser back button to return to this site</big></p>

With something like:

<div>Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa with my daughter Justine in 1999.</div>
<div style="color:red">Click if you would like to read my <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/b8gxy1z0nnyn227/Kilimanjaro%20climb.pdf">journal of that experience</a> Click on browser back button to return to this site</div>

That should work without eating the link up!

Thanks for your fast reply. That worked perfectly
