Drowning man catches at a straw.

Damn Sad
Auto closing tags?
No, I was testing the colorization of links.

It works: straw
[url=http://dummylink.com][color=#FF0000]straw[/color][/url]

But not this: straw
[color=#FF0000][url=http://dummylink.com]straw[/url][/color]

Possibly a bug ?
No, that's just how CSS inheriting works...

No, that's by design. Try it with raw HTML, you'll receive the exact same result.
I probably saw a post (perhaps Ryan Gordon's post) somewhere telling that MyBB overrides the bbcode automatically to the correct syntax. I forgot the link though. Sad I'll try to search.
* Yaldaram kills a bug accidentally. :s
This is not a bug, it is how css works. You just need to write your posts the right way :p
