Compatibility with url filters module

Hi nikle and thanks for this.

It seems I do not have url-filter installed myself. Also on drupal.org I cannot test this because of limitations in the html filter. Could you please try the following html on your site and let me know what happens. (So, just the following html directly, no footnotes involved.)

<div>
<ol>
<li id="footnote1">http://www.example.com</li>
<li id="footnote2">www.example.com </li>
</ol>
</div>

OK, I finally had some time to plow through this. This is now on it's way to be fixed, here's current status:

* This is actually a limitation of the URL filter as it comes with Drupal core filter.module. It is very limited in where it finds URL's
* This issue was already fixed months ago and has been working. (The fix is that URL filter also supports li elements.)
* However, due to some changes in Footnotes module that I committed to the development tree some weeks ago, url's in footnotes would not be made into links. (Because now Footnotes outputs Definition Lists with dl, dt, dd elements and no li elements.)

I have myself submitted a patch to filter.module that will take care of this and many other limitations. You can follow it here: http://drupal.org/node/161217

Once that patch is committed this bug can be closed.
