Zoho link breakage

Tags:  

As of Oct 14, 4 PM Pacific time (11 PM UTC), the problem has resurfaced.


Awaiting zoho fix of the 'breaks links when edited in IE7' issue.

test link

1) goto the page, login
2) click 'edit'
3) highlight the TEST LINK, click the 'Insert Web Link' button on toolbar
4) click the 'URL' tab
5) next to 'URL' type "http://google.com"
6) click 'OK' button
7) WITHOUT leaving the edit mode, repeat steps 3 and 4
8) next to URL it now says "google.com" ... the "http://" prefix has
been stripped off!

This makes the server to prepend 'http://quux.wiki.zoho.com/' to every link, since they don't have 'http://' of their own

Another test case: got a friend to edit the page from Vista. Links work properly for him. But if I click edit, change nothing at all, then click save, the links immediately break. If I do it several times the link grows larger each time, becoming:

 http://quux.wiki.zoho.com/quux.wiki.zoho.comgoogle.com

I was able to make it happen in IE7 on XP (SP2), and IE7/Vista. Both with all the latest updates and with no extra plugins loaded. I could not reproduce the problem in Firefox on an Ubuntu system.

Java version: 1.6.0 build 1.6.0_01-b06
