Symptoms

We are using the $wcUrl syntax to link from the Content Presenter to a node in the Navigation Model.
This functionality is described here in the Webcenter Spaces Users Guide, Section 40.7 Adding Links from Content to Navigation Nodes.

This node is a URL link, e.g. a link to http://www.oracle.com.
However, when this $wcUrl is used in a Wiki document included in the Content Presenter on a page, an extra 'http://' prefix is automatically added .
This means the link does not work until we edit the HTML to remove the additional prefix.

The same behaviour is seen in a WebCenter Portal application.
