Sarah, Sorry I can not be more help. I am interested if others have this problem and how they get around it since I have this problem from time to time too only not on FB, but on my blog. Readers have asked me to make links which appear on my blog active. Apparently, when I type the url as part of my entry, it shows up as text. When I cut and paste the url from elsewhere, most of the time it appears as a link on which readers can then click to activate. I have not figured out how to always ensure the url is always a link which can be activated.
