insert/edit link button in visual editor pops up error

  • When I’m editing a post in the visual editor, and click the insert/edit link button (the little chain), instead of getting the expected dialog box, I get a Yahoo search box that says

    Sorry, ‘xprogramming.com.htm’ does not exist or is not available.

    I’ve seen a similar thing from other buttons but not sure right now which ones.

    Seems like a configuration problem somewhere. Any ideas?

    P.S. Is there some way to get a notification on an answer here? Thanks!

  • What version of WordPress? tried disabling plugins?

    I’ve had a similar issue and can’t find documentation on this anywhere.

    Recently the box that appears when insert/edit link button is pressed in visual editor the dialog box just displays the home page of my site instead of the options for inserting or editing a link.
    Can still add link in html view but my clients who manage this site have very limited ability with html. It worked fine for a few months before thiss.

    I’ve tried deactivating all of the plugins which made no difference.
    Have updated to 2.8.4 and swapped themes, tried different browsers, cleared cache and cookies.

    Thanks,
