Hi, people.
Using C-c C-l to create a link, I'm replying to the two prompts with the
following contents:
Link: http://www2.stm.info/taz/horaire.php?l=29&d=E&t=52103
Description: Autobus 29 est
The link is then saved as (using fundamental-mode to see it):
[[http://www2.stm.info/taz/horaire.php?l%3D29&d%3DE&t%3D52103][Autobus 29 est]]
If I then use C-c C-o on that link, the browser (Google Chrome if it
matters) apparently receives (as shown in its URL entry bar):
http://www2.stm.info/taz/horaire.php?l=29
which is not what I expected. Is there some trick I would need to know
for this link to work?
François

FWIW, I can't reproduce this problem. Here is how I tested:
I cut-n-pasted the second form of the link
[[http://www2.stm.info/taz/horaire.php?l%3D29&d%3DE&t%3D52103][Autobus 29 est]]
into an org file, and changed my browser function (I usually use firefox):
(setq browse-url-browser-function (function browse-url-chromium))
Following the link then gives me a timetable for "Ligne: 29 Rachel" and the
URL shown in the URL entry thingie in chromium is the complete one:
http://www2.stm.info/taz/horaire.php?l=29&d=E&t=52103
not the partial one that you get.
I also tried it with my usual firefox browser and also got the same result.

To check the invisible parts of an Org link here are some alternatives
to Fundamental mode that stay in Org mode:
1) M-x org-toggle-link-display
2) M-x visible-mode (also toggling)
3) temporarily delete the first "[" or last "]" of the Org link and undo
4) C-c C-l with point on the Org link to show the link part in the minibuffer

Thanks a lot for having tried, Nick. This tells me there might be
something, somehow, somewhere, maybe outside Org, that breaks it. I
should investigate more aggressively then. I'm preciously saving your
message until I get some more free time.

P.S. Who started a new job on Monday, and now have some difficulty
recovering an equilibrium with free time in it. Things should settle, I
guess, once new habits will have been created.

I knew 3) and 4), but not 1) and 2). Thanks for educating me! :-)
