Title: In-thread links to self-posts now broken?
Post by: phillipsjk on March 12, 2014, 04:10:20 AM
hello,

After updating the P2Pool thread with information on how I got pypy working, I went back to edit my original post.

Like this: To say I got it working (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=18313.msg5652928#msg5652928).

However, instead of getting a hyperlink, the url was placed in brackets. In addition, because the hyperlink ended in an '8' the closing bracket and last character of the URL was converted into: 8)

Code:
dummy text to try to reproduce original post
Update: Should link to next post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=511982.msg5653222#msg5653222)

Don't know why I can't reproduce it now.

edit: was able to reproduce it in preview mode by inserting a space between 'url=' and the URL. Appears to be auto-corrected on submission though.

Edit Maybe I never submitted it, assuming the preview would match the final submission.

Update: saw note that images are disabled in "this page" while pre-viewing another post. "Security reasons" not sure what security concerns would require breaking the preview function.
