BBCode URL in comment

[Fabien]

Hi,

When I insert this url (http://www.cell.com/current-biology/ful ... 12)01086-X) in a comment with the URL BBcode, the link is not created and the resutl is
[url=http://www.cell.com/current-biology/ful ... 12)01086-X etc.

The result can be seen at the end of the comment, here : http://www.integralpersonality.com/IPBl ... html#c2138

Any idea ?
Cheers, Fabien

PS: when I preview this message, I can see that the automatic link is also incorrect.

Hello,

Time flies ! I have changed the url in my blog. So the link "The result can be seen at the end of the comment, here" in my previous message is no more valid.

But the problem can still be reproduced with the url

Code: Select all

http://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(12)01086-X

that is usable in all browsers but is not accepted by url bbcode.

Thanks,
Fabien

Hi!

( and ) are not allowed in BBCode (also, not in URLs! But most browser auto-fix them)...you might want to use %28 and %29 insude the URL instead and see if that works=
