Description
Creating links using the GUI editor wikipage link and attachment buttons don't work well, creates javascript(0) page names and other mishaps
Steps to reproduce
- Use GUI editor
- create some text you intend to link to a wiki page with spaces "here is a link"
- highlight that text and click on the button to make it a link
- in dialog that comes up, specify "here is a link" as the wiki page name then click o.k.
- the dialog will minimize but won't go away
if you click cancel it creates a link to something like: javascript:void(0); *1223520255426*
- if you now highlight the link in the GUI editor and press delete and save, the above javascript message will appear as the link, or it simply won't go away
- You can do the same thing with attachments - just clicking the button to create a link to one will allow you to enter the name but when you click o.k. it does nothing
Create link name for attachment e.g. "LinkToAttachment.pdf"
- highlight but text and click the button to make it link to an attachment
- enter name yet again for attachment link
- click o.k. and the dialog will minimize but it won't go away...

Workaround
Using text mode and not GUI editor and just doing syntax directly - however, one of the main reasons I wanted to use MoinMoin was the GUI editor because I like to see things how they will look while I'm creating them as much as possible.
Discussion
Update to 1.8.0rc and the GUI editor will work! -- GurkPeter
