Darn.
Hm.   on it’s own perhaps?
Test

telnet://www.vertigo.darktech.org
another test.

<!-- And how are comments processed? -->

Hm. So link protocols are allowed. presumably gopher, or, say, mailto: would work too.
gopher null
mail me!

Pity about the encoding of & it limits the use of useful character encodings. The only reason I can think of is for fear of losing track of < and > in multiple evaluations, or something. Or just bastardliness.
[any slips?](kyber tries to be clever)
[any slips?](kyber tries to be clever)
[any slips?](kyber tries to be clever)

ooh! Couple more!
[any slips?](kyber tries" to be clever)
[any slips?]('kyber “tries” to be 'clever)

Woohoo! Just realised something about current browser bizaareness!!!
Testing with Google button cause it is easiest…
[Google button javascript!](javascript:q=document.getSelection();for(i=0;i<frames.length;i++){q=frames*.document.getSelection();if(q)break;}if(!q)void(q=prompt(‘Enter text to search using Google. You can also highlight a word on this web page before clicking GoogleSearch.’,’’));if(q)location.href='http://www.google.com/search?client=googlet&q=’+escape(q))

In case there are limitations on quotes…
[null](javascript:foo.bar():wink:

Oh well… I suppose that javascript would only work if I could convince somebody to drag it up onto their nav bar. :stuck_out_tongue:

Well, that was fun. Off to the forums…

HTML character codes work if you preview them first. Interestingly, they seem to resolve to the actual character, so if you construct a code out of the codes and preview multiple times, it’ll all evaluate.

Clear?

Sounds clear. Let me try a few common ones.
-> <-
&trad; it’s either that or ®

Hm. So, <b> will resolve to <b>?

Odd, wasn’t quite clear, but I think I understand now. It didn’t show up right in the first preview, but the textwindow contained the right characters. The second preview evaluated everything bee-autifully.

Cool! Now’s time to throw in unicode! Kanji on demand!
