Asked by: samri

There are a few parts on that page that should by hyperlink, but does not.  Is it suppose to be that way or the EE Team are still working on the site?

For example;

looks like that was posted as text in a frame rather than a full html page.

Exactly.

What I am curious is that - is that the way it suppose to be, or the EE Team are still working on it, (or totally has ignored it).

modulo,

Thanks for the clarification.

Forced accepted :P

Anyway, it may still look awkward to have the word "click here" but no hyperlink follow.  Or some people must have be betting on the fact that not many people (like me) will be talking about that.

cheers.

modulo,

Thanks again for the attention.

Please bear in mind that I'm not trying to be fussy - just want to share my tought.

cheers.

Well, what you are looking at is an article posted by Austin, and not the official EE FAQ. Articles may not contain active HTML, the same way a question or comment may not. He could have posted valid URLs, which would be made into links, but it looks like he just did a huge copy/paste. If you want to see the original version with all the active links, click on the Help link in the upper right corner of the page.

Jan,

well it not a big deal anyway.  I'm just felt like sharing my thought.

Imagine somebody browse to EE, and click on "How does Experts X Exchange help IT professionals?", and get the "text" page.  Scrolling down, they might come to the place where the "click here" is shown, and say - hey.  Those folks in EE might had "unfinised" site.

Thanks again for your time.
