The script checks url and link description. If both parts of description (splitted by "...") are part of the url, the truncated description will be replaced by the url.

Examples

Visit this thread in official vBulletin forum and have a look at link after "More information might be posted at vBulletin.com:". Without this script the following link will be truncated and shown as:
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...28#post1399028
With this script the full url is visible:
