Hi,
Is there any way I can edit the post.asp or topic.asp to change the way Hyperlinks are displayed?

Currently if I use the following ( I have used "*" in some places so this code will display on this post im writing now:

[url*="*http*://*www*.mywebsite.net/page2*"]*http*://*www*.mywebsite.net[/url]

I will get a hyperlink of "*http://www.mywebsite.net" but I want it to be "*http*://*www*.mywebsite.net/page2"

I know I could do this: [url*="*http://www.mywebsite.net/page2*"]mywebsite.net[/url]

but I want to do the first example.

I don't quite understand what you are wanting. If you want the link to display like this:

http://www.mywebsite.net/page2

then just put that in, no need to use the url tags:

http://www.mywebsite.net/page2

I think I know what you mean ...

When Snitz automatically interprets the links, you don't want the page2 part displayed. You want it to automatically do :

[url*="*http://www.mywebsite.net/page2*"]mywebsite.net[/url]

(without the *'s obviously)

It is do-able, I'll see what I can do but I can only look at it in a few hours. Someone else might be able to help you sooner.

yes laser, I want to have the actual link hidden. So if I have a link like http://www.mywebsite.net/blalblabla.html I want it to display http://www.myotherwebsite.net/someotherpage.html or wahtever is written .

I do still want to dispaly the "http://www." part as well btw

This is how I would write it in Javascript but I don't know how to do that in the Post.asp, topic page or where the asp code is:
<a href="http://www.mywebsite.net/blalblabla.html" onMouseOver="window.status='http://www.mywebsite.net/blalblabla.html';return true">http://www.myotherwebsite.net/someotherpage.html </a>

I would really appreciate it if you can help thanks.

ah, that's a bit harder ... I thought you were only trying to remove the html page name. Why do you want to try to hide the page name though ?

Some of the links have really long URL's or they use affiliate links which have an URL that I would rather hide sometimes when I make posts on my forum but I still want to display it like a hyperlink instead of "Click here" etc

So I take it this is quite difficult or impossible to do?

It's only impossible while we don't understand, you can change the code that changes the URL to do what you want.
