Hiya

If you put an http:// link into a post, it breaks - the site seems to add an automatic "br" tag to the end of the link text, which breaks the link. Then if you try to edit it, it replaces the end with an elipsis "...". For example, this is supposed to be a link to a chinesepod page:

Hello everyone, this is Peter. I am the customer service specialist here at ChinesePod.
The changes to the publish post/comments functions were updated a few days ago. The new update had a conflict with the coding with the posted links. Our tech team has been notified of the problem and are working to resolve this issue. We will have a fix for this bug in the next couple of days.

Anyway. I'm completely spamming up the dashboard. This was the original error:

http://chinesepod.com/packages/courses/individual/... />

Which is now apparently fixed. God I feel stupid now.

AND BROKEN AGAIN ! lol

Uh, ok. Really confused now. That 1st reply above is actually my reply to my reply, but I went to edit it, then cancelled it, and now it's replaced my first post!

Help! Something so weird is happening to comments!!

There you go, it's broken. I'll add the link here, then try and fix it by editing it.
