Would you mind editing your post and putting that URL in a link instead of the text? It's stretching the page...

(By the way, why are you posting a google cache address when the original page still works?)

I apologize and I have fixed it.

I was just being in a hurry and a idiot at the same time, was sleepy and ready to go to bed for work.

I would be nice if the forum CSS managed to force the forum to stay within bounds of browser window, and just overflow the offending line instead of widening the whole forum.... but I'm too lazy to fetch the CSS and fix it, so I'm just whining..

Mods have been modifying these kinds of URLs for a long time but I can't seem to get the tag to work. Apologies.

Agree with Mystran though.

A CSS fix would have the nice property that it'd make very wide images overflow the forum as well, and still keep the forum in sane size...

But yeah well... maybe one day...

What we need is to get people to rename the url.

I was just thinking, that mods could just take the domain name from the url. or take the page name of the link.

for example
http://www.google.com.au/...
would be come
Google
or
OSDev - Google Search

Yep, tried. Didn't work. That's what we usually do.
