To post a link to an internet web site you have to copy and paste TWICE.

1. Copy the link. (at the top in the 'search field'.

2. Paste it into a word processing application, like Microsoft Word, or others.

3. Hit return (enter) after you paste the link into word processing, and the link will show up in underlined blue, which means it is an active link.

4. Copy the new link in the word  processing app.

5. Paste it into your message here at the Alzheimer's site.  The link will be blue and underlined, which means it is active.

This sounds a lot harder than it is.   You just have to cut and paste twice it make an active link.
