Guest qtkris Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Everytime I attempt to add a hyperlink via FCKeditor (v2.0 FC, preloaded with CC 3.0.15) to the Homepage, the URL changes in the Source code from the standard <a href="...> to include a \" inside the double quotes on either side of the URL as follows: <a href="http://newslookagifthorse.blogspot.com">newslookagifthorse.blogspot.com</a> changes to: <a href="\"http://newslookagifthorse.blogspot.com\"">newslookagifthorse.blogspot.com</a> If I upload the modified page, when you click on the hyperlink, it bombs because it then includes the URL of the store in front and /%22's on either side as demonstrated below: http://www.lookagifthorse.com/%22http://ne...logspot.com/%22 I am sure this has something to do with a configuration file either in the FCKeditor itself or globally?? I have tried both typing in the URL and also via cut /paste to no avail. Can anyone explain how to fix this? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try one of the following: Use single quotes Try putting a \ before the double quotes Try using none at all. One of those should work!

Guest qtkris Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Thank you for your reply. I am guessing that something in the editor is forcing the link to include the double quotes, (in addition to the double quotes that you'd expect to see) as well as the path from the site to appear in front of the true URL path. It doesn't matter how I modify the source (tried all three ways you described), the editor keeps reverting back to the code described in my original post. There's got to be something in the editor code that supercedes the formatting of hyperlinks relative to the site's URL?? Any ideas? Not sure what file(s) within the editor directories drive the hyperlink paths and formatting?? Hhhhmmm??? LAGH Blog Thanks Again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmistress Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Did you type in the link yourself, or use the 'insert link' button from the editor? ... or both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
