Bug Solving the URL Code Problem with Parentheses

[Redbelly98]

If you type in a url that ends with a ")", the ")" gets omitted by the code that generates a link.

For example, typing

[noparse]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)[/noparse]

then results in the following bad link

[noparse]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric ) [/noparse]

In the final post, this appears as
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric )

The ")" should get included in the URL:

[noparse]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric) [/noparse]

which would become a valid link in the post:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)


Here's the thread where this happened:
