Hi Colleagues,
any progress on this? Since the root cause is known for several weeks now, a fix would be the next step? right? Or must this be forwarded-to/requested-from some external party?
thanks,
Pieter

I had reported the same issue a half year ago
with IE11 and Chrome.
Right now I can see the issue with this Tiny url link discussion from your screenshot, and it is still faulty at the page I reported:
but any other discussion that I open today does not have this issue.
I just compared the source and it looks like the titel of the discussion as well as a preview of the discussion content is taken and included to these social network share buttons. I guess there is some issue with special characters used in the content that makes this text appear around the button
The first post below is without this ghost text, the second with this ghost text:
<<<<div class="social-btn linkedin">
<a class="stat-btn" href="http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=http://scn.sap.com/thread/3487766&title=Shadow%20...In the detail view of a discussion the help text that usually appears when you move the mouse over a button stays permanent in front I get this in Chrome and IE11" target="_blank" title="Share on LinkedIn"></a>
</div>

Hi Jürgen
It is nice to see you dive into source code to find out the root cause.
I had a look at Linkedin share button developer page.
The share URL can have several parameters, one of them is summary whose maximum length is 256 characters.
The documentation says all parameters must be URL encoded, meaning double quote in parameter (summary in this case) should be URL encoded, which is not happening here on SCN.
This should be a server side fix.
Looking at OP's example source code, the summary has double quote. System thinks first double quote as end of summary parameter.
summary=Hi,I am distributing following tiny link http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/x/n4efFgoffered via the "Tools => Link to this Page => Tiny Link" option , accessible from this pagehttp://wiki.s..."
As a workaround, I think post can be edited so that there is no double quote character in first 256 characters of post title and content
/.
Hello Pieter,
not just for you. I'm on IE 9 and have the same view. So maybe it's something with the thread itself?
Regards,
Steffi.
