Pasting specific URL in a conversation leads to buggy behavior!

[cstromme]

After pasting the url at the end of this message in a conversation the following happens: 1. I can not see the url in the conversation 2. Anything I type in after it does not come up neither at my end or the other, but I do see the replies back from the other party 3. I can no longer close the window with CMD+W

I'm using Modern View here, not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Here's the url:  http://vg.transact.no/Item.asp?GroupID=178&Group=Dataspill&ThreadID=1409326&Thread=S%uFFFDPPEL%20BIL%20simulator%20

Confirmed with Stockholm message style on 1.3.2b1

Since it's impossible to close the window/tab after doing this, without restarting Adium, I'm raising the priority.

This definitely happens in the link parsing, but i don't know where or how -- the string apparently is getting mangled before it even hits any of the lex code.

[earthmkii]

There is an unescaped '%' character in the URL, and it looks like the string is corrupted when it gets converted from an Attributed string to an NSString before it's even scanned. Removing that character makes the string linkify correctly.

I'll mockup a driver app to test this later, but this URL works as expected ('%' encoded into '%25') http://vg.transact.no/Item.asp?GroupID=178&Group=Dataspill&ThreadID=1409326&Thread=S%25uFFFDPPEL%20BIL%20simulator%20

(In [25236]) NSURL has some difficulties with string formatting escaped in URLs, as does CFURLCreateStringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding. While I'm investigating workarounds, this is a quick-fix to keep AutoHyperlinks from freezing up the app when one is encountered. Refs #11059.

(In [25237]) Better way of doing [25236]. Refs #11059.

(In [25239]) Merging [25237] to 1.3 branch. Fixes #11059.

[earthmkii]

Opened ticket #11160 to track a proper fix for this bug.

(In [25240]) One more place to fix #11059. Stupid special case code... do we even need this anymore?
