    Hi Alex

    We are picking up what looks like a url i.e.
    www.xxx.com
    http://www.xxx.com

    We do not support HTML tags at all....

    Cheers.

    I think it might have a problem with URLs with parameters in it though? Lets try

    http://www.test.com/?sitename=www.test.com

    Hi Alex

    I have managed to fix this one. Was quite a nasty one as it is difficult to build a regular expression which ignores &amp; but stops on any other &xxx; encoding.

    Anyway, have a look at the dev site where it is fixed, if it interests you on:
