Hi Marius, It just happened in firefox so FF isn't immune. In this case, I copied the text from IE and pasted into FF. I've been doing a lot of that lately. If it turns out to be frequent that it happens when I'm copying from IE and into FF I'll let you know. I'm thinking that things are smoother when it's an FF to FF copy/paste. -----Original Message----- From: clay [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, September 03, 2009 12:39p To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] the links I see don't look like the links I posted Marius, Thanks for responding. Sorry I'm just now getting back online. I'm in IE8 compatibility mode right now. I copied the text enclosed by the comments where 'positive reviews' is a web link: /* published by Gotham Books, is getting some positive reviews. Murray points out that */ and pasted it into the WYSIWYG editor which is also in IE8 compatibility mode. After 'Save and View' I get the same results as before: Display: positive reviewshttp://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/09_36/b4145072739717.htm Page Source: <span style="color:#0000ff;">positive reviews<!--startwikilink:http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/09_36/ b4145072739717.htm--><span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/09_36/b4145072739717.htm"

Repeating in a new, empty page gives the same results (displayed). I don't use Safari. I have Firefox 3.5 & Chrome 2.0.172.43. Sometimes Chrome is ID'ed as Safari so that may have been what I was using when I first posted. Just pasted the link only in Firefox. New, empty page. No problems. Pasted link with surrounding text in Firefox. New, empty page. No problems. The WYSIWYG editor did not display any toolbar buttons in Chrome so I couldn't test it there. One thing I might add is that when I first encountered this, one of the things I tried was using Syntax 1. I haven't gone back to confirm it but I got the impression that the process was more reliable in that Syntax. That's just a hunch though. If you want me to try it out I will.

Are the new lines, the tabs and the text after the URL important? I mean, does this issue reproduce without them (if you paste/write just the URL)? What happens if you paste/write a URL in an empty page? What version of Safari do you use? Does this issue reproduce in Firefox? Thanks, Marius
