According to the CommonMark spec, markdown image syntax can include a quoted title after the URL, like so: .
Using this format does display the image correctly in Obsidian’s Preview mode, but in Edit mode, the image URL doesn’t work. The URL is still clickable, but instead of navigating to the image, it creates a new note with the title image.jpg "a title attribute" inside of /path/to.
Using Obsidian v0.11.5,
macOS 10.15.7
Please let me know if I can provide any more information!
Enter [some link with title](http://127.0.0.1:8080/1/2/3 "hello world") in edit mode
Expected result
cmd/ctrl + click on url part of link (http://127.0.0.1:8080/1/2/3) in edit mode should open http://127.0.0.1:8080/1/2/3
Actual result
Seems that http://127.0.0.1:8080/1/2/3 "hello world" is opened
can be reproduced in both Live Preview and traditional cm5 editor
In local http server listening at 8080, the server recieved the followings:
Available on:
http://127.0.0.1:8080
http://172.24.108.142:8080
Hit CTRL-C to stop the server

Environment
Operating system: macOS 12.0.1 (21A559)
Obsidian version: v0.13.4
Proposed solution
It seems that MarkdownView.triggerClickableToken is using all the text inside .cm-string.cm-url.cm-list-1 generated from Editor.getClickableTokenAt to open link:
I think that a gatekeeper that remove title part before URL being opened in click handler could be a workaround before the editor markdown parser is fixed:
