AOL has a dodgy way of reading the links for some reason copy and pasting the link should work though 8)

Of course it doesn't work, it's AOL, use a decent ISP instead, one that's actually compatible with the internet.

i must admit, aol is a crock of crap, the copy and paste does work as i sed from the start

It drives me mad, why do people use it? I'm going 2 go pyhsco, I think we all get everyone using it to boycott the service, there are plenty of ISP's out there that will actually work, and don't need their own image compression and shit

boycott it and they restart it wiv a different name!

wtf is he talking about?

I just noticed.... he's right, the link shouldn't work in AOL because the leading PHP slashes haven't been stripped.  This is fixed in RC1 though.

That's what I'm talking about! There are AOL hyperlinks, and if they don't work.. then why are they there? I don't think someone 'overlooked' them that easily :?
