[TYPO3] additional parans in typolink...

[Andrew Davis]

i guess its obvious i dont fully understand ts if im posting 
questions... thanks for the suggestions. i checked out your site, which 
im sure will be helpful.

you say about my solution -- "it's a bit ugly". Do you have a better 
suggestion about how I might do this? Im not married to this. I tried 
using the tipafriend extension but I had difficulty in implementing it 
thru only typosecript (i had to place it as a content item on a page in 
the BE).
