BBC-Spell link acting up

I'm finishing up my next guide, yet i have found a slight detail that is wrong with the code
i will put in a spell, for example..
yet, once i save the change and check to see what my guide would look like live, it retains and when hovered over says "Spell not found :("
it should be like spell=103851 which will read as
Black Blood of the Earth
the spell should read as Worshipping...any particular reason why some spells dont insta-link? Its the same for quite a few others

- ok weird, it works now, even in your post - I noticed you wrote "
S
pell=" with an uppercase S in both links to Worshipping, but not Black Blood, maybe that is interfering with the proper request of spell data. Let's use a random spell link:
Yep, it's definitely the uppercase S - not your fault MG, but as a workaround until the devs fix this, use "
s
pell="

Well right now it still shows a capital S in the OP, yet it still shows the ability and not the Spell #.
Harrison's Rope Beam 02
Lower case 's'
Upper case 's'
I think it just depends on how it receives that data.

I've got to say that I'm actually a little surprised that it works at all if you use an uppercase "s". Generally, within tags, if you use uppercase characters the entire tag will break (eg. ). However, if it will parse it at all then it ought to fix the case too and fetch the data (or not parse it for the preview so you know that something's wrong).
It's all or nothing. I'll see about asking a dev about it.(##RESPBREAK##)16##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##

I'm not sure what you're getting at with that post. Could you explain a little more?
I should say that once the item is fetched it will work for uppercase links which is why you saw your first post in the thread get filled in once Nathanyal linked the items within the same thread. I'm not sure if that detail helps at all...

That is not how you link items.
Black Blood of the Earth
lowercase
uppercase
This is how you link items.
Or by putting the whole url in there,
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=103851
.
It has to be in the format , where the numbers are what comes after the spell.
Such as 103851 for
Black Blood of the Earth
Black Blood of the Earth

asakawa, could you tell to coders to also support case-insensitiveness (is that a word?) in URLs? E.g.
http://www.wowhead.com/Spell=93366
does not work either
*edit*
however, automatic conversion to a \ format by the forum works ^^
