I've also tried to fix it by config:

CKEDITOR.config.forceSimpleAmpersand=true; CKEDITOR.config.basicEntities=false;

and on the instance config too

@AlmogBaku I have just checked your issue in bbcode sample.

It seems that the only way to insert link is through link dialog and I haven't seen any ampersand change. Could you tell me in which browser and which OS are you getting this?

still not fixed!!

I am using Firefox at windows 7

In comment no.1 I have asked you for some details as I was not able to reproduce the problem. Two months have passed and you haven't replied - ticket has expired because of lack of your response.

Please provide more details to this ticket screenshots, screencast, answers to my questions. I will check it then and will reopen this ticket if I'm able to reproduce it.

Hi there,

i experience the same problem here - i use bbcode sample from _sample/ folder.

when in Link dialog is entered URL containing ampersand (&) this is converted into url encoded & when editor mode is switched between wysiwyg and source modes.

i am on xp and bug appears in FF9, chrome16 & IE7

if you need any more details pls let me know

thanks in advance

Hi @krajicek,

I have checked your problem but didn't get the result you were talking about.
I have found out however that link can't be exited and may be destroyed when you modify it: #8995 and #8994.

Is this the problem you were having or it is different? If it is different could you provide detailed scenario, configuration options used and perhaps a screen cast?

Hey There! I've record a screencast of the bug: ​http://screenr.com/5tX8

Thanks and Shabbath Shalom. ~ Almog.

Thank for the screencast - now I see what you have meant.

This is actually the same situation as described here #8995 - you modify the link and it gets destroyed.
