External Links Not Working

In the forums sections, when entering a post and adding a link to an external page, the resulting link adds the site url to the beginning of the link, thus the page is not found, i.e.

Example of Desired path: http://www.amazon.com

Example of Given path: http://siteurl/www.amazon.com

How do I produce a link that will go to the proper external link?

Thanks in advance!

Is there a better place to post this so that I might get a reply?

I am unable to reproduce on my dolphin 7.0.9 site or my 7.1.0 site or on the boonex demo site.

We most likely will need the site url so we can check the site for problems.

Also report exactly which version of dolphin you are running.

 Bill are you putting the http:// at the beggining of the link. If you leave that off in some parts of the site I know Dolphin will append the site URL to your link.
