    I'm using BlogJet 2.0.0.10 on WinXP Home SP2 and MSIE 6. (I'm hesitant to upgrade to IE7, since I use Firefox for all browsing anyway.) Steps to reproduce: 1) Start new blog post. 2) In post body, type:
    This is "a simple test".
    3) Select the words "a simple test" (not including the double quotes). 4) Hit Ctrl-K to turn the selection into a hyperlink. Enter "http://test/?foo=bar&baz=bing" in the "Address" field. Click "OK". 5) View generated HTML source by hitting Ctrl-Tab. What you get is: This is "a simple test". That is wrong. What it should have been is: This is "a simple test". Where did the extra pair of double quotes come from? (e.g., around "bar&baz=bing")? Please fix this?

    Thank you! We'll look into this. At this time, the workaround is to manually remove the extra quotation mark in HTML code editor mode.

    Dmitry, have you tried that? I tried correcting the HTML and when it posts, it seems to re-generate the HTML one last time and sends the bad HTML. The work-around I've used is to post using BlogJet, then go directly into Movable Type and/or WordPress (as appopriate for where I'm posting) and hand-edit the HTML there. Definitely not a great solution, but that's what I've had to do thus far. I'd really love to see an update released that fixes this bug. Thanks.
