Component:  Press This    |    Version:
 Severity:  normal        |   Keywords:  needs-patch

 The problem:

 Some hosts have lame mod_security rules that block unencoded urls, making
 Press This unusable.

 The fix:

 Replace:

 {{{u='+e(l.href)+'}}}

 With:

 {{{u='+e(l.href.replace(/\//g,'\\/'))+'}}}
