Malformed links unnoticed in preview

The < a href > tag is a bit prejudiced towards the post's preview. It doesn't seem to care that you (I) are (am) often lacking the closing double quote on a link. E.g.: Below are two links to google, the first of which is HTMLed up correctly, the second of which lacks a closing double-quote. Despite my continued ramblings after the second link (verifiable when attempting to edit the post), the final result is nothing after the malformed tag. No such error shows up in the preview window, which is the main bug, I guess, not just that a missing quote takes out the rest of the post. That's just my fault. Link 1 (Correct): google Link 2 (Nothing will show up after this): <a href="http://www.google.com>google Editing the post will reveal this text is here, even previewing the post will show nothing amiss. The omission only appears in the final post. -jouley [Edit: Just checkin']
