FUD forum 2.7.4

if you select some text, than click url_insert button in Internet Explorer it will make a link for you like:

Under gecko browser (tested on Fx 1.5.0.1/Windows, Fx 1.0.7/Linux, Epiphany 1.8.4) it will create:

I'm not sure but it looks like the check_selection function in lib.js is turned off for all other browsers than IE, same time the insert Tag function works correctly in Fx so technically it should be possible to do it for url_insert() also.

It works properly in Safair and Firefix 1.5.0.2, just tested the latest CVS.

What is the sense of testing method window.getselection in function which is called if:

function insertTag(obj, stag, etag)
{
	if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") > -1 && !OPERA) {
		insertTagIE(obj, stag, etag);
	} else if (window.getSelection && navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Safari") == -1) {
		insertTagMoz(obj, stag, etag);
