| | | | | | | (...) Yes, the first form is supposed to work -- and I think the problem you're seeing with it is the first ever reported. I'm not surprised, though, because it's technically kind of "dangerous" (or "iffy") to use colons in URLs, because they're (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Clicking on the "view raw" link from the HTML version works also (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Hmm, if I right click and select "Open this link" it puts the right URL into a browser window, but still gets (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | | | | | | | (...) I probably didn't explain it right... The example that you give above works, but something like (URL) because it thinks that song.mp3 is the port number. Other failures include (URL) it would try to connect on port 100. As Todd pointed out, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Like '/' or '?', it is only supposed to be used in certain ways. So really, xmms is doing the right (...) (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Excepting September 1999, when I compare the traffic for a given month in 1999 with the traffic for the same month in 2000, I consistently see the 2000 traffic as higher. In fact, in general, I see the same (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
