684511 - BugZilla should linkify https-protocol links as well in the URL field

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, defect)

Description

[Timo Tijhof]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_0) AppleWebKit/535.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/13.0.782.218 Safari/535.1

Steps to reproduce:

Created a bug with a https://-protocol url in the URL field.


Actual results:

It wasn't linkified/clickable.

Example found on landfill: https://landfill.bugzilla.org/bugzilla-tip/show_bug.cgi?id=2525 (https link in URL-field is not clickable)


Expected results:

It should be made into an anchor tag, just like for http://-protocol links.

Example found on landfill: https://landfill.bugzilla.org/bugzilla-tip/show_bug.cgi?id=2524 (http link in URL-field is indeed made clickable).

It's actually not the https-protocol but there's an !-char (or something else) in the URL that makes the URL link not linkified. A https-protocol link works without such bad characters.

[Timo Tijhof]

Indeed. Although I can't see the !-char on landfil (it's broken up and the end with ...). Apparently the bug on our own bugtracker also had a !-char in it. Seems to work fine.

You will see the full URL if you login.

It should just show in a tooltip if you hover over the URL.
