When I try to post the following code, I am getting an error;

[url=http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/81.19.208.31:19567/][img]http://cache.www.gametracker.com/server_info/81.19.208.31:19567/b_560x95.png[/img][/url]

Preview works fine, and I see the image with the associated URL. However, when I post I get this;

[url=http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/81.19.208.31:19567/][img]http://cache.[url=http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/81.19.208.31:19567/b_560x95.png]www.gametracker.com/server_info/81.19.208.31:19567/b_560x95.png[/url][/img][/url]

You can clearly see where it's falling over, because of the http :// cache. at the start of the image URL.

Thanks

If that's your forum, you won't get any help, here, until the SMF copyright's restored.

So...

We're being asked to provide support for other forum software, now?

How odd...

Didn't I just go over this with someone

mostly, it's a problem with that website not using a standard url address format.

The problem is that smf interprets www as the START of a web address, so it is attempting to make the URL that is SEES into a link because that cache.www screws it up.


I honestly don't call this an actual SMF "bug" and I would prefer telling the stupid people who used that format of url to use a proper format.
