I keep trying to put url tags in my replies but I get this message and I can't see what I am doing wrong.

You started a URL tag with [ url=ht tp://url.com , but did not close it with [/URL].

[ url=http://www.namotorsport.co.uk [ / url ] spaces inserted to get post up

[ url=http://www.namotorsport.co.uk [ / url ]
You're missing tags

e.g [ url=http://whatever]description of link here[/url ]

Just edit the message using the little pen icon to see how it's done - here's an example.

Basically its [ url=http:// without the first space then the full URL incl http:// then close the brackets ] then the display text then close it with [/url]
