Is anyone having problems using VT?
I have not used them often in my travel pages but did recently and thought I had mastered the code.
Today all I am getting is a Yahoo News Home page.
Re-did the wanted link several times and that delivered a Tourist site of the place I wanted to Link to.
I am following the code, entering the town I want to link to after the closed square bracket, in place of Yahoo

Any ideas please?

Your Hyperlink should look like:

%L[http://www.virtualtourist.com/travel/Europe/United_Kingdom/Wales/Gwent/Abergavenny-318324/TravelGuide-Abergavenny.html]Abergavenny%L*


I took your hometown as an example.

How does your presen (not working) hyperlink looks like?

Pieter - Thank you so much for your quick and very helpful reply.
I've got it now! Must have been having a very senior moment. Thanks again.
P.S.My attempts looked nothing like your clear example but I'm too embarrassed by my mistake to show how silly it was. :)))

Just a weekend moment.

We should be celebrating the weekend in stead of doing the VT trial and error stuff :)

Celebrating the weekend - Today - a bit of looking after the garden, a bit of reading and cooking dinner for tonight and some VT. Tomorrow with family for most of the day - a nice programme ! Cheers B.
