Incorrect 'bad' words filtering?

(1/1)

Hi,

I added word 'f asterisk asterisk k' to the banned words list. I didn't know the asterisk would work as a wildcard.

When clicked on 10 recent messages link, this manipulated < img src=... > tag badly, so the smile was not visible.

BTW: Is there a way to have banned word with asterisk? Escaping with backslash doesn't help. Users sometimes write 'sh*t' or such and I want also such obfuscation to be caught (my forum is intended for all ages).

I believe the \ works... like \*.  f\*\*k.

Problem 1:
Not for me, for sure. Using beta5.

f\*ck matches f\*ck and f\*ack

but not f*ck

----
Problem 2:
when using censored word f**k and action=recent, some wink smiley displayed, the img gets incorrectly 'censored' (mangled) as following:
< img src="http://domain/CENSORED.gif" alt="Wink" border="0" / >

Original is:
