WoW Forums clickable links

Last update on Aug 8, 2008

Makes links clickable even if Blizzard disabled that function in their forums. Works for US and European forums.

Due to a vulnerability in the Adobe Flash player, Blizzard disabled auto converting links to clickable HTML. This is extremely annoying if you come past a regular links to a image or a video, since you have to select the link, copy it and past it into the address bar.

This scripts parses the entries for links and makes them clickable again.

This script is awesome and has made me visit many more links on the wow forums than I'd otherwise would.
Sadly there is one small bug with it. If a link appears last in a quoteblock <hr is added at the end of the link making it unusable. E.g.

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Mannoroth&n=Laynd
is turned into
