Replying just to the -dev list.
Well, the user should not have to care about this. The only thing
which is confusing you is that you are trying to make JSPWiki do
something which it cannot do, and therefore you are seeing odd effects.
The slash check for attachments is just a speed optimization. You
should never see the side effects (unless you forcefully try to
create a page with a slash ;-)
It's one of those "doctor, it hurts when I do this - well, don't do
it then" -things.

Ok that's obvious. But the currently implemented logic then seems to
be "it mustn't be a page, so it's an attachment", which isn't that
obvious anymore?

That's easy - if you are able to create a page name containing a
slash, it is a bug. Slashes are NOT allowed in page names.

Hi all,
while trying to create a wiki page containing the slash character,
I've been running into some weird issues. I've been testing this on
2.6.2-svn-1 running on Tomcat/6.0.14.
It's not making much sense to me, so I'll post this here awaiting
some
comments like "sure, that's all fine" or "ugh, that's a bug".
* first try:
[issue one / two]
Creates a link to an attachment "issue one / two" of the current
page (http://localhost:8080/jspwiki/attach/issue%20one%20/%20two).
Result is a "HTTP Status 404 - Attachment 'Issue one two', version
-1 does not exist." from Tomcat.
Weird:
* Why is this an attachment and not a regular page link?
* The link appears in blue underlined letters, although it doesn't
exist.
* slash in the link (!?), no slash in the error message.
* second try "maybe escape the slash":
[issue one \/ two]
Nearly the same again,
"http://localhost:8080/jspwiki/attach/issue%20one%20%5C/%20two";.
But this time, the result is a blank page (really blank, no HTML).
* third try "maybe with double slash":
[issue one // two]
Same as first try, but of course the double slash is the
difference
in the link.
What remains is the question of how to correctly link to such a wiki
page and whether which characters are allowed and how to be used is
documented somewhere (haven't found anything on this topic).
Regards,
Florian
