NBBC Bug Bounty (for elite regex hackers)

Alexei

The NBBC library has a couple of minor bugs that annoy me, both related to URL handling:

1. Automatic URL parsing includes trailing periods and appends them to the URL.
2. URLs with apostrophes in them are not parsed properly, either within [url] tags or without.

$50 by PayPal to the first person who can patch nbbc.php to solve these two issues!

Have you tried the newest version?

It doesn't seem to have these issues.

Also you may wanna wait for Vanilla 2.3, because NBBC has been rolled into the core.

Nice, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Solved!

I'm sure @initvector would take the $50 But anyway he is the one who made it a nice separate library that we can use as a Composer dependency. The repo is here: https://github.com/vanilla/nbbc

Haha, sorry. No retroactive bounties!

NBBC is such a great library, even though it's been dormant for years. Great job replacing its slightly faulty URL detection function!
