Search link with quotes in Paper


Joe Weaks

Recommended Posts

When I simply paste this link into Paper, it doesn't auto-recognize the search terms as part of the link because of the quotation mark.

 

https://accordance.bible/link/search/NA28-T?"γέγραπται"_<AND>_[RANGE_matt-john]

 

Am I doing something wrong? Can I easily overcome this?

Edit: Sorry, misunderstood this problem.  That below is not the resolution but is a workaround (probably but I didn't try it).

 

 

Pretty sure that would have to be URL encoded to work:

Also, looks like using a single quote (') works in place of the double quotes.

 

But this is really a bug. The double-quotes should be URL encoded when copying as a search URL. Lots of applications are going to fail to handle some of these characters (including ", <,>, etc) and will result in broken links. For example, Google Docs also fails to properly link this.

Here is a handy list of the unsafe URL characters that should be encoded and their equivalent values.

I believe that when copying as a "Search URL" Accordance should be replacing the unsafe characters with their URL encoded values.
