Unmatched [ in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\.[ <-- HERE [Tasks.BookmakerPlugin$/ at /..path..to../lib/Foswiki/Plugins/WysiwygPlugin/HTML2TML/Node.pm line 1504.

Changing back to unconfirmed. I can't seem to recreate it on my local install.

I wanted to make an existing wikiword link to a different web visible, so I edited the topic ( Support/Question1389 ) and inserted a [ ] around the link to "Support.BookmakerPlugin" and "Extensions.BookmakerPlugin". The crash occurred on save.

I suspect the solution is to escape the regex with \Q \E.

Confirmed. And confirmed \Q \E fixes it.
