      Issue Summary

      This issue is a product of a fix introduced for https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-73553

      Text field single line wrongly converts URL link to Mailto link if link contains @ symbol. If a URL link placed in a Text Field (Single Line) contains an @ symbol, such as a Google maps link

      https://www.google.com/maps/place/Washington,+DC/@38.8938672,-77.084616,12z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x89b7c6de5af6e45b:0xc2524522d4885d2a!8m2!3d38.9070644!4d-77.0375061

      The text field will highlight this link, but it will render as a <mailto> link and open a mail program

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. create text field (single line) or URL field and add it to your project's screen
      2. Add a url link to this field that contains an @ symbol in it

      Expected Results

      field would know how to distinguish between a email that does not contain a protocol at the beginning and a URL link that does

      Actual Results

      the link renders as a <mailto> link and opens an email program instead of taking you to the linked URL

      Workaround

      None currently known. using backspace ( \ ) before the @ symbol does not break this part of the link and cannot use wiki markup to correct the link
