Tijmen commented on SLING-7493:
-------------------------------
In addition to the '.aspx' extension that gets rewritten to an '.html'
extension, the current implementation also add the '.html' extension to
external links if those links contain a forward slash:
* [https://www.twitter.com|https://www.google.com/] is unmodified, as expected.
* [https://www.twitter.com/TheASF] gets an '.html' extension, this is often
unwanted behavior; [https://www.twitter.com/TheASF.html].
* [https://www.twitter.com/TheASF.aspx] loses its existing extension (it is
replaced with '.html'), which is often unwanted behavior;
[https:///www.twitter.com/TheASF.html|https://issues.apache.org/www.twitter.com/TheASF.html].
> HTL must leave external urls untouched

> Key: SLING-7493
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7493
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Scripting
> Affects Versions: Scripting HTL Engine 1.0.48-1.3.1
> Reporter: Feike Visser
> Priority: Major
>
> In the current implementation of @ extension option of HTL, also external
> urls are changed.
> It is very common to have a list with both internal and external urls.
> <a href="${ item.link @ extension='html'}>...</a>
> Now when you have an external url with .aspx, it also gets replaced with
> .html.
> I know this is in the spec, but I can't think of usecases where you want to
> have this.
