Trouble with url tags.

Troll be having trouble getting links to some urls using the url tags.

For example, This ulr tag setup no be working as a link to http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Ratchet_(G1) (which also no be working as the parenthesis there should be part of the address.)

Troll assumes that it be because the url ends in something in parenthesis. Be there something else going on here? Is there anything Troll can do to get that or something like it linked to using the url tags?

You need to substitute %28 for the ( and %29 for the ). The url tags are picky about what characters you can have in them.

(There are similar codes for other symbols... someone can probably find a list.)
