This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:

As the title says, currently, link() doesn't play well with queries. For example:

src << link("byond://?action=chat;text=hi")


Does not trigger the desired behavior, whereas:

src << browse("<a href='byond://?action=chat;text=hi'>hi</a>")


Will produce a window with a clickable link that triggers the desired behavior. Or:

client.Topic("",params2list("action=chat;text=babyboy"))


Will have the same effect, bypassing link() altogether.
note that doohl is referring to the webclient; dreamseeker behavior is ok here
This should be a pretty easy fix.

I'm still looking into your other link() issue; it appears to have more to do with the web side of things, so I have to get back up to speed on that code--which needs a face lift anyway.
was this ever fixed
Lummox JR resolved issue
Yep, looks like it was fixed, but darn if I know which version so I'll just mark it as resolved.
