Contribute modifies links that go through a proxy server

Issue


Contribute modifies hyperlinks that go through a proxy server (for example: http://proxy.com/url?=http://intranet.com) when a user enters it in the Web Adress (URL) field:

After the page is published, the link changes to http://proxy.com/url?=http%3Aintranet.com

Reason


Our engineers are aware of this issue and are looking into the cause. Send any feedback through Feature Request Form.

Solution


Tests showed that this happens when the link is entered in the Web Address (URL) field. As a workaround, use the HREF field in the 'Insert Link' dialog box.

Additional Information


For information about creating hyperlinks in Contribute 3, refer to Making hyperlinks with Contribute (TechNote tn_16579)
