okay. so in my page i have this code:

<a href="[FMP-field: address]">[FMP-field: address]</a>

where address is a field with a valid url as data

but when i try this i get an error message that says :

This program does not support the protocol for accessing '[FMP-field: address]'

I'm lost.

This is only a guess, but I would guess that that is a prohibited term. You may need to rename your field if you have named it "address". Probably best to avoid that term and "url" and "ip".

There exist tags [fmp-clientaddress] and [fmp-clientip]. You may need to tune into these as an option.

Here is the code that I have in a format file that displays a field as a mailto link:

<A HREF="mailto:[FMP-FIELD: SenderEmail]"><B>[FMP-FIELD: SenderName]</B></A>

It's important that the field "SenderEmail" has a *valid* email address or an error message will appear when the web user clicks on it.

In your case, does the field have a valid url or path in it? It the error generated by the browser, the server or Web companion?

Does your address field contain special characters? Avoid encoding them by using [FMP-field:address,raw]!

Or [FMP-field: address, URL]
