Hey, ita? Could you look at this post,
DXMachina "Natter 40: The Nice One" Nov 11, 2005 7:35:34 am PST
and tell me why it keeps putting a ">" symbol after the link?
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Nope. Jon edited it. What did it used to look like?

I've noticed that before. If there's a t br tag earlier in the post, then the auto-tag-closing code (mistakenly) puts a t /b tag at the end of the post. If the link is the last thing in the post, then the t /b rubs up against it and the auto-htmlify-a-link code does something weird with the opening <
I think.
Anyway, it can be removed by going into edit and putting a space between the link and the t /b
An example
to study:

"[Link]>"
I edited it a couple of times, but it kept inserting an ">" entity after the </a> tag.
eta: Huh.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I have given up trying. Updating the Community Links thing is larger than an ordinary human.

Can you describe the problem you're having, so it can go on the list to be fixed?

Holy Carp! This is almost exactly my phrasing, when I am going up against a complaint from a newby-please-loan-me-clue-user.
I can't change the URL of the link.

You hit OK and everything comes back the same? Can you change the title or description?

Yes, ma'am. I have changed URL, description, and title.

Wait, you have successfully changed the description and title, but not the URL? Or do they all fail?
