URL syntax change?

I just tried posting a message with a link having a title, to wit:

Groklaw

and it doesn't seem to work anymore.

This used to work fine. As typed, the "url=" has only been entered once, and there is only one closing tag. Using parentheses instead of brackets in order to illustrate, what I entered was:

(url=http://groklaw.net/)Groklaw(/url)

Looking at it in Preview, it seems to be trying to automatically putting in a link in what isn't supposed to be a URL tag...

[[url=url=http://groklaw.net/]url=http://groklaw.net/[/url]]Groklaw[/url]

you type url= twice in the first part. Maybe that did it. I don't quite have time to error-check. PM av, see what he says.

[EDIT: The system auto adds a url tag. I've noticed this when typing out url's before, 'twas imperative that I added the url tags. but now, the system auto-adds them.

I also had difficulty hotlinking an image this morning. It hiccuped and gave me a weird URL. I know the tags were right. Could this be related?

test:


see? code is as follows:

www.google.com

hmm. code tags and pre tags don't override it. this is odd.
