Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 67242
Non ASCII characters prevent links from being recognised
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
If i write www.vg.no (a norwegian newspaper site) OOo Writer will make this a link when i press space. But if I use web adresses with æ, ø or å in it (like www.blåbærsyltetøy.no) it will not. Norwegian characters are supported in many browsers: * Internet Explorer 7.0 or newer * Firefox 0.8 or newer * Mozilla 1.4 or newer * Netscape 7.1 or newer * Opera 7.22 or newer * Safari 1.2 or newer for MacOS X * Camino 0.8 or newer for MacOS X Links (in norwegian): http://www.domeneshop.no/faq.cgi?id=8, http://www.domeneshop.no/faq.cgi?id=101&session=d3f69e003aa49dea
The 'no' project cannot fix this bug. It probably belongs with the word processor.
reassign
Reassigned to ES.
AFAIK non-ASCII characters are already in use for URL names but not officialized (ISO, RFC...) yet. If we should support them in yhperlink auto-formating? Reassigned
