Please use the linking conventions. When you give a full
URL, if someone follows your link but is using this site
under a different name, they will lose their login.
That is instead of constructing the above link with either
of:
<a href="http://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=69097">here</a>
[http://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=69097|here]
it is best if you use:
[id://69079|here]
And a tip for those who don't want to accidentally post as
Anonymous Monk. Set your personal theme to anything
other than the site default. Then when you follow
a link that can leave you logged out, you will see
everything change colour and know what happened...
