Missing closing BBCode tags

Most BBCode tags cannot span across multiple lines (see BBCode help). If a closing tag is not found before the end of the line, the parser considers the end of the line to be the ending tag. Since the parser removes the end tag, it also removes the end-of-line character (newline or line feed character). This has no effect on the output code unless there are two unclosed tags on a given line. However, if there are two unclosed tags on a line, the subsequent line is run onto the end of that line.

Link Validation

Whenever a raw URL addres is place into a section's text, or the 'url' tag is used (e.g. [url=http://wherever.com/[/url]), the system will check to see that the destination link is valid and working first. If it is not, it instead displays an error notification page. This feature can be disabled via the system setup entry "_external_links"

For an example, http://click-this-surely-bad-link.com/

The 'bug' in this system lies in the possibility that the target web site might be accessed from your browser's location, but not available from the web site's server. A 'direct' link (without the verification) is available on the error notification page.

The other 'bug' is that some links cannot currently be checked by the system, such as secure sites (those that start with https://...).

To get around this, the third way of making a link does not do any error checking :[url]http://google.com[/url].

Cookies

This is not a Contentor bug as much as a general problem with cookies. A cookie set for a page such as www.contentor.net will not work on contentor.net (without the www.). To avoid this problem, Contentor will redirect anyone entering on a differnt URL to the URL specified in the setup configuration _path_url entry.
