Java's a little out of my league but, here goes.....
When a url is inserted into a post via the link button, it comes up like...http://fud.prohost.org/download.php, which can be done without the link button (autoparsing?).
My question is, is it possible to use the link button and have the url post like......THIS

If we autoparse a url we have no place to read the link title from, so it is defaulted to the url itself. If you want to title the url, use the [url=] syntax.

Exactly, like the example in my post at the top. My suggestion was to perhaps automate the process a bit as is done elsewhere. Some folks don't know how to alter the tags.

I think I finally understand what your referring to. You want the JavaScript to allow the user to enter the description for the tag, correct?

Yes, I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. It functions perfectly as it is of course, I just thought allowing for title insertion would make a nice addition.

Well, after analyzing the situation I'v reached a certain conclusion in regard to this feature.
Current implementation of this feature is 2 fold 1 for IE and one for the rest of the browser which unfortunately do not support a certain feature.
In IE if you select a text and then click on the URL link once the URL is created the text you've selected will become the description of that url. Effectively doing what you set out to do with the "double question" javascript. Other browser which do not support this feature insert the plain URL tags for which you need to enter the description manually.
IMHO doing a 2 level JavaScript promt is a little aquard and would be annoying for the user. I think that other browser will soon implement the capabilities that would permit us to determine the selected text inside a text box and implement IE like functionality in for those browsers as well.

Hmmmm, perhaps you're right. I've gotten so used to the 2-step process that I don't notice it anymore, but I remember that it used to really bug me.

When designing FUD's front end me and prottoss usually hotly argue on and on about how it's best to implement a certain feature, but usually at the end it turns out to be the best of any forums because so much of our "blood" is on it  ...
For example, when we went to develop this whole FUDcode javascript we looked around to see how others have done it, and really found it awkward, so we went out and did it our way, however we noticed some forums are now doing it the same way... so, this proves us right  ..

You can add a description to your URL by using the following syntax inside the [URL] feature<br><br>URL=http://www.myhomepage.com]My Homepage[/URL<br>( don't forget the opening [ before URL= and the closing ] after [/URL<br><br>this code will result in the following:<br><br><a href="http://www.myhomepage.com" target=_new>My Homepage</a>[/quote]
