Just noticed this... shouldn't be happening:

http://www.tsmc.com/tsmcdotcom/PRListingNewsAction.do?action=detail&&newsid=1806&&newsdate=2006/05/17&&language=E#top

Thats when you do:


http://www.tsmc.com/tsmcdotcom/PRListingNewsAction.do?action=detail&&newsid=1806&&newsdate=2006/05/17&&language=E#top


But another URL,

http://www.gargoyle1.com/main.htm


[url]http://www.gargoyle1.com/main.htm

Works fine.. I dont see the problem in the URL though, maybe the repeated tsmc?

I always thought you had to do it like this:

www.google.com (www.google.com)
www.google.com (www.google.com)

You could, but the fact remains it is a bug :p:

You could even use the B tags before the URL tag.

Hmmmm, let's play a little bit....looks like it's coming from the auto-shorten. If you cut down the tsmc link to just .com, it looks right, and if you random characters in the middle of the gargoyle1 url, it runs into the problem as well.

EDIT: ^^^^ looks like just plan b tags around a link work best and are the least work, lol....parses then bolds automagically. :p:
