Thanks so much!

Plus signs in URLs are getting mangled.

My website address which has tilde in it is not getting properly ThnLnked.

Example: http://web.syr.edu/~dkhakhkh

becomes

http://thnlnk.com/syr/Dipesh.Khakhkhar.Website/nPF

This one does not work but the following works. http://thnlnk.com/0000000274

I guess, there is some encoding problem with special characters like tilde. Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thanks so much, Dipesh! I fixed it now, and your link should work from now.

Your text box is too small - http://directory.uwa.edu.au/view?dn=cn%3DAlex%20Dawson%2C%20ou%3DInformation%20Technology%20Services%20(ITS)%2C%20ou%3DOffice%20of%20Finance%20and%20Resources%2C%20ou%3DCentral%20Administration%2C%20o%3DThe%20University%20of%20Western%20Australia didn't fit in its 250 character limit.

Thanks so much! I recently increased the size of the URL in the db, but completely forgot to do it on the actual page!

Mak,

I tried it out, and it seems to work:

Maybe a problem with the spaces in the URL? I just copied and pasted what you had above into ThnLnk. Any more specifics would be great! And thanks for helping out!

Fixed a glaring bug where non-US domain names weren't being parsed properly. Whew. That was a biggie and a baddie!
