Any problem with urls?

I'm not sure since when, I just noticed today, all links I seen that have been typed at the end of a paragraph and then converted in links by the system have "</p>" at the end.

By that I meant links this one:
http://miezaru.donmai.us/help/ratings

adding a space after urls seems to be a workaround
http://miezaru.donmai.us/help/ratings

The url appears ok, but when I mouse over or click there is </p> at the end

Looks like the script that make the url clickable takes the next consecutive html tag inside the link, if there is no space before it.

Was it changed again? because I'm pretty sure {/quote} was not in the link when I posted that. I was looking for </div> but I don't think I'm that blind XD

and problem seems a bit diferent, because </div> would appear in links with quotes before.

Yeah, when you posted "all is fine now" it actually was fine. Seems it got broken again somehow!

The problem was posts were being escaped, so

http://test.com

was being converted into <quote>http://test.com</quote>. Since ampersands are legal characters in URLs, I couldn't think of an easy way of fixing this other than not using fake HTML tags in the first place. So instead of

, use

(likewise, instead of use ). Sorry for the inconvenience.

I don't mind it. Since you don't have to Shift to get those characters, it's actually easier and faster for me to use square brackets. I know some people get uppity about moving away from angle brackets in general though.
