84457 2002-09-29 10:56:00 I was just doing some searches for some older posts.

If a URL has been formatted using the <url=http://domain>Place</url> method. If the link is highlighted, because of the search term. It does not work properly.

84458 2002-09-29 11:12:00 Well, I just tried two different highlighted links and they both still work ... ?:| Jen C (20)
84459 2002-09-29 12:03:00 Have a look at this post (pressf1.co.nz) the link XP thread does not work.

The link now points to

pressf1.co.nz style='background-color:#ffff00'>thread</font>=13417

84460 2002-09-30 06:33:00 The link XP gives me the same http garbled string you posted above, but others still work. I went and called a few more up, choose search words that are commonly used in URL formatted links and they link still. Why would some work when highlight and others don't?

Very strange .......

84461 2002-09-30 07:55:00 I've just posted in the "Print to file" thread my "explanation" of this phenomenon. -=JM=- 's full "working with [ p r e ]" link destroys the formatting of the rest of the thread. ;-) Graham L (2)
