Unable to submit posts with links?

[AndyA]

Is it just me? When I try to post a reply that includes a web link, my browser downloads a .php file instead. I've tried posting Google Map links and also a link to a website. I've tried using Chrome and Firefox, both download .php files.

I'm going to reboot my PC in the vague hope that it might be something at this end that's causing it.

Happened to me last night when I tried to posting images from Flickr using the BB Code.
I finished up posting the text, saving the post then editing the post and used the Flickr BB Code and it worked.
I thought it was just me having another age issue so I am glad that someone else has had the same problem. Well not really glad but pleased it was/is not just me.

I've seen this type of thing before but refreshing the pages has always worked for me. I think it's looking for a php file it didn't have time to load properly before you clicked the link.

Was happening to me all last week. Only thing that solved it was posting from another computer. Happened at work, then works at home and vice versa. Not sure what's going on.

I tried four times last night and almost gave up. I got the PHP thing every time, then I loaded the images directly from my PC using the Icon, and it worked.

Happened to me as well. Tried old dodge of posting text first then add the image and that worked OK.
