           Summary: URLs in comments get double-quoted, breaking them
           Product: WineHQ Apps Database
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=1706
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: website-bugs
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: lamber45(a)cse.msu.edu


The source code for the linked page includes the following text:

<a HREF="<a href="http://packages.debian.org/testing/gnome/gramps>gramps</a>">
packages.debian.org/testing/gnome/gramps">gramps</a> </a>

The same thing happens to all other URLs that are entered in <A
HREF="...">...</A> form,  instead of as plain text in URL syntax.  Clicking on
the link in Mozilla displays a 404 error from WineHQ,  and the following text is
displayed:

http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=1706

The culprit seems to be the call to htmlify_urls() in include/comment.php.  We
should either rewrite htmlify_urls() to not break existing properly-formatted
links,  or at least add a clear coment in the instructions on that page.
