#1782 closed defect (bug) (worksforme)

Adding "/index.php" to end of 'home' or 'siteurl' options is irreversable

Description (last modified by markjaquith)

Had a visitor to #wordpress who had put in "​http://site.com/index.php" as his 'home' and 'siteurl' options. This, of course, broke his site (CSS link was invalid). What's worse, he couldn't change it back, because the options form was using the faulty siteurl value as the action of the form! He had to fix via PHPmyAdmin

We should be preventing people from appending values that will break their installs (like we do with stripping the ending slash).

The action of the general options form seems to be "options.php" which is relative, so people should be able to fix this themselves.
