This is the second time this has happened. I hope I can explain myself well enough for those with power to look into the problem.

Basically, it seems that when I am on certain pages the "Perl Monks" link at the top of the page takes me to /index.pl/index.pl which, for me is a "Search Results" page page searching for "index.pl".

These are the links I followed to arrive at Search Results when trying to get to The Monastery Gates.

From page Re^4: I prefer to wear... I clicked on the following link, I prefer to wear..., which takes me to the current poll, "I prefer to wear...". From there, when I click "Perl Monks" I am taken to "Search Results" as opposed to The Monastery Gates.

I took a look at the source and found the link to The Monastery Gates constructed like such:

<a class =" titlebar"
             href  =" index.pl"
        >

            Perl&nbsp;Monks
          </a>
[download]

Could that whitespace in the href be the problem? Is it just me or can any of you recreate this?

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
