Bug - Fixed "Click here to continue in the relay browser." messing up the CLI

Was doing a quick tour via the new knob zones and trying to get my hands on the guard uniform when suddenly Mafia froze for 2-3sec and woosh, a bit of my CLI output had turned red and gave me the hand icon saying the text was clickable.
When clicking it, it open a new Web browser window in a new tab, once per time I click it.
When I saw it, I aborted and tried to find out what had happened but when I noticed it was nothing dangerous I set Mafia to continue. I switched between some tabs in Mafia and suddenly mafia seemed to freeze again. Now the text that used to be red and clickable no longer is, but now another part of the CLI output text is :eek:

Did a lil cutout of the part where it start to turn red. The part where it stop is after "Request 8 of 17 (Knob: Cobb's Knob Kitchens) in progress..." but before "[564] Cobb's Knob Kitchens"

Code:

EDIT: It would seem that the freezing of Mafia appear right before the text in the Graphical CLI tab is changed, and I am not sure I can reproduce when it happens, and which parts change and when it change back to normal text seem to not be consistent either. Just now it turned back to normal text in the middle of a combat but before the item drops were registered.
THe only part that seem consistent is that it change text already printed bright red and clickable to open a web browser window =S

Using r9052 and at first I thought it was restricted to the new knob zones, but it have appeared elsewhere as well.

The same thing happened to me with r9053. I pressed escape while auto-adventuring, Mafia aborted and displayed the "Click here to continue in the relay browser." link correctly.

I then finished the fight manually in the Relay Browser, changed the setting I had forgotten to switch (castle farming with a "try to run away" strategy isn't optimal). Up to now, the gCLI looked normal:

I started auto adventuring again and stopped after one adventure, and this is what the gCLI looked like at that point:

I think it's having issue with the fancy formatting. I'll just make the link blue once I do a little bit of event message refactoring.

I'm using 9060, and it still looks like maybe more of the gcli text is linkified than should be. It stays blue and linkified through several requests (including another "Click here to continue in the relay browser"), then recovers when I use a deodorant.

It's not as simple as just this messing up CLI, I think. I just got this :

Any chance there's a 'link close' that's not being sent to the gCLI after it finishes creating it?

It doesn't seem likely, or else I'd have been able to reproduce the problem locally. Of course, I'm using a different JVM from most people:

Code: 
java version "1.5.0_22"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_22-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.5.0_22-b03, mixed mode)
Well, I assume most people aren't using it anymore since according to Oracle, Java 1.5 reached end of life back in October 2009 (see here), and even though it seems like KoLmafia still aims to support it, Java 1.4 reached end of life back in October 2008 (see here).

Edit: Ooh, I just saw the IocaineBot message. If the CLI stops going funny after the 'click here' messages, then the IocaineBot message should be an easy fix as well (just remove all the quotes in the string, since maybe the Java parser didn't realize that the tag got closed).

Edit 2: I also forgot that KoL's event messages are all done in malformed HTML. So the latest revision should fix the IocaineBot problem, but the internal message problem still needs some additional verification.

new "Continue in Relay Browser" link issues.

Not sure if it was a one time incident, but upon being requested to finish my battle in the Relay Browser, the next... I'd say about 4 adventures worth of text, in the gCLI all appeared red and underlined, then it went back to normal.

Then I suspect you are using a build between r9052 and r9056, inclusive. Is that correct?

I -really- don't remember updating mafia -after- playing/reporting that bug (sorry 'bout the dupe, I swear I couldn't see this thread) but my current build is 9068.

Though I can't be certain. Should it happen again I'll update.

When I click the continue link it opens the "My Documents" folder in a new explorer window instead of reloading the page in firefox. I'm on Win7 running r9070.

I had a lot of unexplained red text in r9068 this morning, in case that is relavent. I did have a battle that I had to finish in the relay browser as well.

Now using 9069. I doubt this helps, but I think I was wrong about "stays blue"--the text after the original link is (now, at least) normal at first, then at some point gets redrawn as red (no more blue) linky text.

i.e. one moment:

and then:

I also had the same problem as catchops yesterday I think (with a daily build downloaded that day).

Today though, I got the "Click here to continue in the relay browser." message, and didn't click. I simply opened a new Relay Browser window from the menu, and, lo and behold, no red text appeared after the link in the gCLI.

I'm not sure a) this is the right place and b) that I am remembering the previous behavior correctly.

I auto-adventure. A choice adventure is encountered where my choice is Show in browser. I get a CLI message about it and things stop. Since I have the relay browser already open, I have to Refresh the browser and respond the the choice request. I thought the previous behavior was for mafia to automatically open a mini-browser window with the choice request in it. I would like any of the following to occur: the choice opens up in my current relay browser window; the choice opens up in a new tab in my relay browser; OR the choice opens up a mini-browser window. Whichever occurs I would somehow like my attention directed to it such as switching tabs or having the mini-browser as the focus window.

I understand the first is not desirable for folks who chat and compose messages in the relay browser while auto-adventuring. I don't multi-task that way. Are there settings already implemented for one of these choices that I have missed or is this an unexpected side effect of recent changes or should this be a new Feature Request?

Thanks.

When I clicked on that link in the CLI the last time it opened up a new tab in my browser of choice (FF in this case). I thus had two relay-tabs open at once and closed the most recent one after having finished what was the problem.
