Newsletter bad link in survey
-
Hi Chris (et al). In the newsletter I just received, there's a link to a survey about competitions. Unfortuneately, the link has merged with the full stop to give: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Surveys/voteform.aspx?srvid=1496. instead of: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Surveys/voteform.aspx?srvid=1496 which works... I doubt there's much you can do about it now though! Iain.
I am one of "those foreigners coming over here and stealing our jobs". Yay me!

The text version? I'm guessing that, since the sentence containing the link ended in a ".", your email client decided was part of the URL when creating an auto link and hence gave you the wrong URL. I've edited the newseltter so that those who are yet to receive it will not have this problem.

Hmm, yes, it looks like it was all Yahoo's fault for being "clever". But I won;t be unique, so maybe worth putting spaces after URL's? Thanks, Iain.
