Solved Slashes with text being converted to hyperlinks

Post by Ange Tuteur October 24th 2013, 2:50 am

I'm not sure when this started, but I noticed it today when a user was having trouble with a script from another forumotion forum. This will affect any javascripts with single line comments.

Slashes with text being converted to hyperlinks Captur48

Apparently some text followed by two slashes with text converts it to a hyperlink.

Ex: 0 + // + Text = 0 http://Text

Code:
1 //HELLO
2 //TEXT

Hi,

This is a randomly re-occurring issue, could we get a screenshot please, just for verification
Once a member of staff see's this, they'll be able to pass it to the devs and they can apply a fix, hopefully quickly Smile

Regarding the issues with scripts distributed on FM forums. If you are using single line comments ensure that the editor does not break them when posted.

Simple comments should be written as: // Comment (Slash,Slash,Space Comment) The comment must be separated from the slashes, otherwise you risk distributing a broken script.

technician wrote:"The modication comes from Youtube tags and other contents that use //url instead of http://. There is actually no solution.
Users should not use scripts with simple comments because the use of double slashes makes the following sentence a hyperlink.
Moreover, this use creates bugs. For example a code written on multiple line breaks, will appear on only one line and create a bug.

For example:


$(document).ready(function() {

   var text="Texte du message";

   // We display the message

   alert(text);
);


is going to become:
$(document).ready(function() {var text="Texte du message"; // We display the messagealert(text)Wink;

All that is on the right of // is a comment, the text will never appear. The function is considered as "never closed", so a bug occurs"
This topic can be considered solved as currently there is no solution.
