      I am trying to share the following link on a confluence page:

      http://www.adaptavist.com/display/ADAPTAVIST/2011/12/07/5+Best+Practice+Tips+to+Improve+Search+in+Atlassian's+Confluence+Wiki

      No matter what I try, the link doesn't work. I inspected the "a" element in chrome and found that here isn't an "href" element. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the link itself (perhaps the ' in Atlassian's) or something else.

      Steps to reproduce (there are three different ways):

      1. Copy the URL from the Chrome toolbar into the clipboard
      2. Paste the link directly into a Confluence page
      3. Save the Confluence page
      4. When viewing the page, clicking on the link does nothing

      Also...

      1. Copy the URL from the Chrome toolbar into the clipboard
      2. With a blank Confluence page, use the "link" button (or Ctrl+K) in the Page editor
      3. Select "Web Link"
      4. Paste the URL into the "Address" field
      5. Save the Page
      6. When viewing the Page, clicking on the link doesn't do anything

      Also...

      1. Use the "Share a Link" page blueprint
      2. Paste the URL into the "Link" field
      3. The title isn't automatically retreived by Confluence (like it does with other links)
      4. Saving the Page
      5. When viewing the Page, clicking on the link doesn't do anything

      I am using Chrome 31
