Hi All,
I'm having a weird problem all of a sudden, and it's intermittent (it seems) to boot! I've had two users report that external links are rendered with the external link in parens. It looks like this:
Given: [http://some.external.site http://some.external.site my text to show] Renders in browser: my text to show (http://some.external.site http://some.external.site
For those that have the problem, it appears after a ctrl-f5 and has only shown up in Firefox. We recently upgraded to MediaWiki 1.5.0, and did not have any reports like this before the upgrade. We came from 1.4.10.
Any ideas? Is it possible that this is not a MediaWiki issue? I have not yet been successful at getting a user to send me the page source when they see this behavior, so I'm not sure if it's bad browser mojo or not.
Thanks in advance, Jeff

Check your stylesheets. Make sure you've got the correct paths in LocalSettings.php. If it's a custom skin, make sure it's updated for current 1.5 bits.
