Description Julio Capote 2005-09-11 09:12:16 UTC 
Version:           0.10 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Complex urls such as,  "http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1665276", are cut off at the "?" resulting in one underlined link that goes 2 different places. Clicking on the part before the "?" takes you to "http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?" yet clicking on the part after the "?" takes you to the complete url and such is the work around I am using right now. However, most users click on the middle of the link, usually the part before the regular expression cuts off, rendering the link useless and making it really annoying. From a usability perspective this is a bug, but from a technical perspective this is just an annoynance with a simple workaround.
