vB 352 PP 521 url editor issue?(FIXED)

funkmiester · December 16th, 2005, 02:03 AM

Not sure where the problem lays with this one - VB or PP....

A couple of days ago I upgraded vB from 3.09 to 3.52 with PP 5.21 in place - anyway - I just noticed when posting or editing comments to a photo while in the Gallery - URL's are showing up like this when clicked on(example):

http://%22http//www.yahoo.com"

instead of

http://www.yahoo.com

They display on screen correctly, it's just when you hover over and then click them that it shows the incorrect URL syntax. It's fine when posting a regular vB based message in the forum - it's just when in the Gallery and using the PP editor this behaviour is exhibited.

It applies to any URL not just this one - it was working prior to the upgrade to vB 352 - so am wondering if there's a file or template I need to tweak somwhere?

Other than this issue, it's been smooth sailing with both vB and PP.

Thanks in advance.

A link to a comment where this is happening will help.

True a link would help. Can't say anything more without being able to see the actual content.

Ahh, ok

Here is a link with an example (see the second post, which has a URL link in it).

Also, one other oddity with this - is if you click the link in IE, you get a 'The page cannot be displayed' error - which is what you'd expect, but when you click it when running FireFox, it takes you to 'microsoft.com'!! Not sure why?!?!

As I mentioned earlier, all was working good prior to the 3.52 upgrade.

Looks like it might be because the user didn't put in http://www. just http:// ??

Hi - no, I went through every scenario before posting here

The editor prefills the http:// piece and I just paste over that with the full URL. It displays fine on screen, but when hovering and clicking shows the incorrect syntax. I then tried again and left the default http:// piece in and then typed in the relevant URL minus the http:// part (using the pre-filled instead) and still the same.

Actually, you can bypass the editor's "insert link" wizard all together and just paste or type in a URL in the message editor box and it still produces this incorrect syntax issue.

Odd, huh!

Well how do you have things set up? Is WYSIWYG ON OR OFF etc etc

I tested this with photopost and it posts fine on my site. here is the link

No Chuck - the same problem exists on your site too - place the cursor over the link or just click on it and see what happens! As I said earlier, it displays on the screen just fine, it's when you hover or click when you see the different syntax.

This is what I get when I click on it on my site as well as your site:

http://%22http//spstudio.elena.hosting-friends.de/spstudio.html"

And yes, the WYSIWYG editor is ON.

Try this in showphoto.php

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

change to this

Code:

Thanks again for your help Chuck, much appreciated.
