Hi there,

when one writes a link in a comment, the link is getting messed up.

From the beginning: User writes comment with link in it. In the preview, everything is allright. But when I approve the comment, the link is changed. Before approval, I see the comment in the approval form like

test<a href="http://www.test.de">http://www.test.de</a>

But when I approve it, it gets changed to

test<a href=\"http://www.test.de\">http://www.test.de</a>

which screws the whole thing up, because the link then ends in

http://www.realfragment.de/docs/reportag...t.de%5C%22 (realfragment.de is the URL of my site)

It makes no difference if one uses the html a tag or bb code or if i have link conversion activated. The only solution at the moment is to convert all links in plain text and let link conversion being deactivated.

Could it be this happens because i have the commentics script integrated in a php file? Anyone any idea?

An example page is http://www.realfragment.de/docs/reportag...erstag.php
If someone onts to write a test comment please keep in mind that I have to approve all comments, which may last some hours.

Thanks in advance and regards, Patrick

Hi,

You have Magic Quotes enabled on your server. You can test it by previewing "Patrick's comment".

Wow, thanks a lot. Yes, that was the error. Since disabling Magic Quotes in my php.ini did not work (I think my hoster is overriding this), I am now disabling Magic Quotes at runtime. To do so, I added

PHP Code:

<?php

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {

    $process = array(&$_GET, &$_POST, &$_COOKIE, &$_REQUEST);

    while (list($key, $val) = each($process)) {

        foreach ($val as $k => $v) {

            unset($process[$key][$k]);

            if (is_array($v)) {

                $process[$key][stripslashes($k)] = $v;

                $process[] = &$process[$key][stripslashes($k)];

            } else {

                $process[$key][stripslashes($k)] = stripslashes($v);

            }

        }

    }

    unset($process);

}

?>

Hi,

I'm pleased you found a fix!

I couldn't help but notice that the RSS links are not clickable.
