Hello.

We discover one misbehaviour with the Auto URL function in MyBB

If you write an URL with subdomain www, and put (at least) one of these "w" on mayusc, the function will use www as protocol instead of subdomain when make the link.


Examples:

Writen Www.example.com

Result:
Www.example.com

Writen: wWw.example.com

Result:
wWw.example.com

Writen wwW.example.com

Result:
wwW.example.com

Writen WWW.example.com

WWW.example.com

On this board only work as described on the first two examples, on a new board when (al least) one w have mayusc the misbehaviour appears. (Screen shot attached and HTML included below)

<div class="post_body scaleimages" id="pid_1">Normal:<br>
<a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">http://www.example.com</a><br>
<br>
One Mayusc (at least):<br>
<a href="Www://example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">Www://example.com</a><br>
<a href="WWw://example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">WWw://example.com</a><br>
<a href="WWW://example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">WWW://example.com</a><br>
<a href="wWW://example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">wWW://example.com</a><br>
<a href="wWw://example.com" target="_blank" class="mycode_url">wWw://example.com</a><br>
<br>
Others:<br>
WWWW.example.com
</div>

Confirmed. This is due to this line failing.
