BBCode execution bug

I typed the following code:

Code:

[url]http://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/Stop_Sign]Stop Sign[/url]

and it rendered as this:

http://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/Stop_Sign]Stop Sign

Does anyone know why? Is it because I'm using the wrong code? Or is the Scratch Forums having execution problems? Did I make a typo? I have no idea why. I had to quote on my own post because of that. E> mad <3

yes, there is a typo
To use different link text, do

Code:

[url=url://here]LinkText[/url]

So what you would want to do is

Code:

[url=http://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/Stop_Sign]Stop Sign[/url]

so it is Stop Sign
There you go  tongue

Re: BBCode execution bug

It's a typo, as SJRCS_011 said. I sometimes do that, when i plan to display a link as the URL, then decide to make it text.  tongue
