I have noticed that the board cannot properly display URL's which included embedded parenthesees. For example, Wikipedia's page on Maida CZ is located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maida_(CZ).
When posted as a standard URL, the board messes up: Wikipedia's Maida page.
You can fix this by replacing the "(" with "%28" and the ")" with "%29" - the hexidecimal representations of the () characters hence, Wikipedia's Maida page.

Re: Posting URL's with embedded parenthesees
I see what you mean, it shows up as
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maida_%28CZ%29
while it should be
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maida_(CZ).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maida_%28CZ%29

Yes, unfortunately this happens with this types of url's. Thanks for letting everyone know how they can fix it.
