I'm sure you've seen a link to a web site that when you hover over it it says "On AOL only"
The above picture shows the "On AOL only" bubble, even though the link sends you to http://hometown.aol.com, obviously not actually on AOL.
There are several common ways to make this happen:
- aol://4344:PP:0:,http://www.fdo-files.com [aol://4344:PP:0:,http://www.fdo-files.com Try It!]
- aol://1223:0/http://www.fdo-files.com [aol://1223:0/http://www.fdo-files.com Try It!]
- aol://1722:http://www.fdo-files.com [aol://1722:http://www.fdo-files.com Try It!] (this might not work on all clients)
and the easiest way which I haven't seen many people use . . .
- aol://2000:http://www.fdo-files.com [aol://2000:http://www.fdo-files.com Try It!]
You can add all kinds of numbers in there to make it look complicated, like aol://4344:PP:55001114:13103763,http://www.fdo-files.com/, but those will work just fine. I think AOL uses the numbers to track stuff, but don't quote me on that.
