Sig block parsed incorrectly

[rival]

Hi,

I've just realised my sig block links don't work as they should. And I can't even show you the text I've submitted because of the same issue. This is what the forum saves:

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.rivals.talktalk.net/lotus]1990 Lotus Elan SE Turbo[/url]
[url=http://www.rivals.talktalk.net/mx5]1999 Mazda MX-5 10th Anniversary Edition[/url]

But what I submitted had lotus with a lower case "l".

And the word "lotus" above was typed in lower case when I posted, but it gets automatically converted to Lotus with a capital L.

I presume this is some forum rule that has been set up? Before I change my website structure to "elan" instead, thought I'd check whether there was any way around this problem.

Thanks,

James

P.S. Just done another preview on this post, and noticed that the forum has now capitalised Elan for me. Does it do it for every make? It'll make any link using those words in lower case FAIL. Help!

P.P.S. I don't think the old style forum used to do this.

Well it is obviously a feature, can you not work around it by pointing the Lotus link to your main site at http://www.rivals.talktalk.net and let people drill down from there?

sorted it.

Al,

Thanks for sorting that so quickly. I see it works retrospectively, so my original post will be baffling to anyone now reading it
