Hyperlink identification.

Guest · 22 Feb 19, 09:35 AM

Hello.

Feeling a bit dozy and don't know if this has always been the case or if it is a new dibb enhancement or not. But I like the dotted auto underlining of dibb hyperlinks!

A quick nosy has found it on ESTA and ADR, but not necessarily on planner or busy day guide or a couple of other regular pages that new members may be pointed to, like the guidebook, or villa search etc.

As I get older I find it increasingly hard to spot the difference between the navy of a hyperlink or black of normal text. The auto dots underneath are really helpful from an accessibility perspective.

I used to try and underline my own when referring to some of the main ones for ease for others, but finding that not so easy to do on a mobile.

Anyway. Just wanted to say ta!

Apologies if it is a very late in the day ta, because it has been happening for 5 years and I have only just noticed...

Edit... Ha sneaky. Just posted this and found the dots came up under the busy day guide. Magic ! Is it just new postings or under old ones as well?

The hyperlinks are not new but the dots under them are. I added them for the very reason you mention. To make them stand out as links.

I have added Villa Search, vacation planner and Guidebook now too.

It is on all posting not just new ones.
