Description Unknown 2003-04-24 00:17:42 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

 **You need a webDAV server running to Save the document via HTTP.  I have
   one available internal to Sun referenced below.  It's the Jakarta Slide
   server available from http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/ -- or you can
   download and install TomCat.  It includes Slide.

 - Load a document via webDAV, eg:
     http://iceland.central:8080/webdav/InfoDoc_94782.sxw
 - Create some example content
 - Highlight a word and select Insert->Hyperlink from the toolbar
 - Make the hyperlink target http://openoffice.org or something
 - Click Apply and Close on the Hyperlink dialogue
 - Click Save
 - Mouseover the hyperlink shows the correct target
 - Close the document using File->Close
 
 - Load the document again via webDAV, eg:
     http://iceland.central:8080/webdav/InfoDoc_94782.sxw
 - Mouseover the hyperlink shows the URL for the webDAV server, not
   the hyperlink specified by the user.  This is a bug.

It should be noted that I have automatic URL recognition disabled
in Tools->AutoCorrect/Autoformat->Options.

I've tested and confirmed this issue on Solaris 8.  I will try to test
it on Win98 at some point soon.
Comment 2 Unknown 2003-04-25 21:02:13 UTC
I have tested and confirmed this bug on Windows98, so I'm changing the
OS and Platform values to "All".

Since this issue involves potentially unrecoverable silent data 
(content) corruption, I am raising the priority of this issue to P1.

My team is using StarOffice for a CMS/knowledgebase application and 
this bug could lead to corruption of hundreds of articles and almost
1,000 links.  These links would need to be reconstructed one-by-one, 
by hand.  *If* backups are available.
Comment 3 eric.savary 2003-04-26 01:00:18 UTC
It doesn't make a P1 because of that...

ES->JA: please be so can to analyze this "extra wurst"
Comment 4 Joost Andrae 2003-04-28 10:20:40 UTC
Joost->Kai: as discussed this could be something for you. Please have
a look at it.
Comment 5 kai.sommerfeld 2003-04-28 15:04:28 UTC
KSO: It's a bug in INetURLObject::SubString::equals()
Comment 6 kai.sommerfeld 2003-04-28 15:40:28 UTC
KSO: As we have a loss of data here this is a P2.
Comment 7 kai.sommerfeld 2003-05-07 16:45:01 UTC
