problems with links

I'm writing an entry & having trouble with links. As far as I can see I'm using the same GuideML as I have done in former entries, but I keep getting 'Attribute value must be quoted' before <LINK....

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

That just means that you're forgetting to put quotes around the link:

Should be



rather than

I'm at work at the moment, but if you copy the offending section into this thread, I'll take a look later on.

This is just one paragraph containing a link:

Applying to University for art courses comes under UCAS but with a rather complex system of route A or B. Route A, selecting up to five courses with a deadline for application in January is the same procedure as applying for other subjects. Route B has a later deadline of March, allowing more time to prepare a suitable portfolio and determine your preferred area of study. You may apply for up to three courses, in order of preference. Your application is only forwarded to your second choice if your first choice turns you down or you decline their offer. You may apply using both route A and route B combined to up to five courses.

For the moment I've taken all the links out to preview!
