When trying to click on this topic from What's New:

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

It said "Sorry, the address is not valid".

However, when reading from SP&L it is fine.

It's not just you.

FWIW, here's the offending link as presented to me in What's New:

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

ETA: I've figured out the problem.

The "What's New" link has literal apostrophes in the URL string, whilst the SP&L link has them escaped to %27.

I've manually edited the "What's New" URL below accordingly, and it works.

This is caused by the title ending in a '

If you remove the last ' it will work, but we will put in a fix for this tomorrow.
