Darrin,

Thanks for the explanation.  However, I think there is a problem updating LINKS.

Please look at post n° #2511538.

I am trying to create a link to this address:

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$USD&p=D&yr=1&mn=0&dy=0&&a=125039020

But, the link that keeps getting updated is this:

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$USD&p=D&yr=1&mn=0&dy=0&&a=125039020

EVEN WHEN I ADD A NEW, SEPARATE LINK!  

I've been creating chart links like this for a long time and suspect that your processor is mishandling the links.

Thanks for checking this out. 

****************

WAIT!  Your processor is modifying my first link.  So, the problem is not the LINK.  For some reason the address I'm entering for a StockCharts chart is being converted. 

Any ideas?

Bear with me as I clarify a point since the above two links and the link in the post you mention are all the same:

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$USD&p=D&yr=1&mn=0&dy=0&&a=125039020

I'm guessing the problem is that the URL is being revised by the post editor, like for example maybe it is converting the ampersands to double ampersands (&&)?  Is that correct? Just want to be sure I send the programmers on the right path for the bug fix.

Thanks Norbert!

Hi Darrin,

I think your guess is probably correct.  I sent you an email so you can accurately see the "before" and "after" versions of the URL.

What's amazing is that the URL still works, only the chart is not the custom one I linked to; just a generic version.  That's some coincidence!  It's had me doubting my sanity yesterday morning.

Thanks,

Norbert 

Hello Darrin,

Could you give me a date on the repair work please?

I'm pressing you because my StockCharts subscription is up for renewal.  As things stand, I can NOT link to my charts from M*. 

I presume you received my e-mail with the details?

Thanks,

Norbert
 

Norbert,

We are set to roll out a regularly-scheduled set of updates on Monday, May 12th (so a little over a week from now). This link issue will be resolved on that date (we've got the fix in hand and are currently testing it).

Thanks,

M*_Darrin
