Link lengths all screwy, too

Mmmmkay, I realize this won't matter to most people, but it does to me. You can't create links within the [ url = ] [ / url ] set up over a certain length. It shortens it and puts an elipse in the middle. confused Like so...

This is few words, so it accepts them.

This is a few more words,...he elipse.

This is a whole lot of wo...much poop.

Somewhere just past 35 characters, including spaces I think, it cuts off. Not really a big deal, but it didn't do that before the recent re-build.

What do you mean? I'm being serious with that question (not about links, they aren't that serious). That's the only way I know how to post a link that opens to another window. If you're saying to just post a link that doesn't open to another window, thanks for not helping at all. lol razz

I think so, yes. But it's not really a big deal. You can always just describe what you're linking to followed by, "here's the link", and only make the word "link" the, uhh, link. lol I just thought I'd mention it in case he's got an interface that was reset or something where he can easily go through and click boxes or change values.
