Re: tiki.org Dead Links

Hi John,

Thanks for taking this tsk, and sorry for the lack of responsiveness. I'm
afraid most of us hang on on the dev list.

These links are not dead, they seem to have suffered from some migration to
short URLs (aka Search Engine Friendly URLs or sefurls).

My guess is, the first one used to be
https://doc.tiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Print+ <goog_1710456658>
Indexed&highlight=print% <goog_1710456658>20indexed </> and the second used
to be https://doc.tiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Multi-
print&highlight=multiprint
<https://doc.tiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Multi-print&highlight=multiprint>
Then someone or some script removed the "tiki-index.php?page=" part, but it
does not take into account pages with multiple parameters. As per the HTML
standards, the first parameter is separeted with "?", the following ones
with "&".

The corrected links would be:
https://doc.tiki.org/Print+Indexed?highlight=print%20indexed
https://doc.tiki.org/Multi-print?highlight=multiprint

But honestly, highlighting the very word which is the name of a page does
not help readability, so I'd feel simply
https://doc.tiki.org/Print+Indexed
https://doc.tiki.org/Multi-print
would be better.

I hope I was not too confusing… I could have just given the answers without
the explanations, but that would not have helped with other similar
malformed links :-(

Cheers,
Jyhem
