External Reference Wiki Tags don't work in WYSWYG Editor

I was trying to add a external reference to a wiki page using the standard ''Text'':http://google.com syntax, and the page would be formatted literally as ''Text'':http://www.google.com - rather than a link. It looks like the (") symbol is being changed to a &quote html tag. Using the HTML editor to edit the page would work, but if you try to use the WYSWYG editor with the page again, it would revert back to the literal formatting.

I'm using Firefox 3.0 - here's the literal version string "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0"

Love the site and the tools BTW, will probably become a paying member soon :-)

I am experiencing the same issue with Firefox 3.0.1.

The WYSIWYG editor isn't that great. We've updated the default Textile editor and its much better. Give it a try by going to your profile, click on the edit icon, and check of the User WYSIWYG editor option.
