Disappearing links in one room

Description

Hi there,

I've been recently using the nightly snapshots of Colloquy and things seem well, except in one room. When I'm on my companies IRC server, in the main chat channel, and someone pastes an URL and I move my mouse over it, it dissappears. The same with nicknames. The strange thing is, this only happens in this one channel. All other channels work perfectly. No trouble whatsoever. Rejoining the channel doesn't help. Restarting the application neither. When a new line is entered in the chat, all links return. But when I move over them again, they're gone again.

Let me know how I can help with debugging.

Kind regards,

This is a bug in WebKit. We don't know the cause, all we know is that Colloquy triggers it every now and then, some styles more than others (dunno which ones, though). I don't know why restarting Colloquy wouldn't have helped - it should have the same effect as the fix I generally recommend to people, which is to type /reload style in the room that's having the problem. That forces WebKit to reload the entire room, which generally fixes the issue.

I'm closing this as wontfix because it's not our bug.
