This link : https://www.jyu.fi/itp/en/plone-guide/tutorial/adding-links-tiny/external-link shows that TinyMCE should offer the choice between internal and external links. But, as I'm sure you know, the version in 7.2.8 doesn't do this. If you click the link tool (not anchor) then you are offered internal links only.
I can, of course, go into the html and add the link like that. I'm not too happy about it though because I'd much rather turn the html button off so that my users don't make a mess.
Beg your pardon. I just followed the instructions in the Umbraco Editor manual in a clean copy of 7.3 and it just worked.

Hi,

Beg your pardon, I just followed the instructions in the editor manual https://www.usi.edu/media/3630204/umbraco-7-editors-manual.pdf page 19 in a download of 7.3 and it worked fine. I'll try again in my own 7.2.8.
Sorry.
