Error in Link to Roleplay on Character showcase

I have noticed there is an error in the "Link to Role Play:" field for characters in the character showcase. It displays two links, on works and the other sends you to http://www.rpnation.com/<a href=


I have seen it on my character and every other I looked at with a link to the roleplay.


Using Google Chrome I looked at the page source and found your problem. (Right click and press "View page source").


I don't know much about HTML, as we only did it shortly in IT, mainly focusing on Java. But I managed to spot this. Here is the code you have:

Code:
<dl class="customShowcaseFieldlink">
                       <dt>Link to Role Play:</dt>
                       <dd><a href="<a href="http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/" rel="nofollow" class="internalLink">http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/</a>"><a href="http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/" rel="nofollow" class="internalLink">http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/</a></a></dd>
                   </dl>

From what I understand, the site is using a table with the class "customShowcaseFields". The second block of the table row "customShowcaseFieldlink" is the one where the url is. The problem is in this little section:

Code:
<a href="<a href="http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/" rel="nofollow" class="internalLink">http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/</a>"><a href="http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/" rel="nofollow" class="internalLink">http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/</a></a>

If I am not mistaken, it should rather look something like this and work whilst not having the two links:

Code:
<a href="http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/" rel="nofollow" class="internalLink">http://www.rpnation.com/resources/the-plague-greatmar2-square-zack.3356/</a>
 
Thanks for reporting this, this either occurred before the new staff took over or is within the addon's development. I will look into seeing where that HTML error is manifesting.
 
No problem. I saw it before the new staff took over, though I never thought to look at the page source before or got around to reporting it.
