When typing a link to the stats page of a user in the personal log, the http: is being replaced with link:. This causes Firefox to throw a message stating that no program is associated with link:.

Here's an example of what I typed:

<a href="http://www.stargatewars.com/stats.php?id=37162">37162</a>

And it gets mangled into:

<a href="link://www.stargatewars.com/stats.php?id=37162">37162</a>

Please fix. I use the personal log all the time for my raiding list.

I believe that was put into effect to curve any hacking attempt using the log...

Use:
<a href=stats.php?id=37162>37162</a><br />

or

<a href=stats.php?id=37162>37162<br />

Perhaps, but it altered existing entries in the log as well as those that I had been adding. If Jason thinks that converting "http" to "link" will thwart hacking attempts, he's needs to spend some time with a few development books and learn proper coding techniques. SQL and HTML injection can be 100% solved in PHP with the addition of TWO (2) lines of code to your script.

I guess I'll go through the couple thousand entries and edit them to fit another, more "secure" format. /sigh
