When inserting a link such as a suggested web site or someone's email address, the link does not hightlight or offer the shortcut of putting a cursor on it to go immediately to that link. How do I resolve this?

I may say check with willis819@yahoo.com or maybe a web page www.secondchancers.net. I would like this to become a link that someone can press their cursor on it and can go immediately to that email or a web page. Usually they highlight in green and can be accessed right from the page they are reading. How do I do this?

That's a question for Yahoo Mail support, not Firefox support.

Here's a general answer that works with many webmail portals.
Above the text area box where you type, hit the button with the "chain" image to create the hyperlink. (chain = links)

I am sorry but I don't understand your instructions. Why would yahoo mail have anything to do with it when I am adding info to my web page which is through admin1and1.com. I am not even in Yahoo mail. What button are you referring to. When I use Internet Explorer, a link will highlight after I type it in and move to the next space. When using Firefox this does not happen on my web page. I need to know how to make it happen.
