working
I am adding social bookmarking to individual posts throught eh template storytext.thtml and the gl stystem strips out my urls that link the social bookmarking icon to the website.


well thats not true, it doesnt strip my link, it appends it to my base url, so my a href looks like this:
http://www.shredthenews.com/%E2%80%9Dhttp://del.icio.us/post?url=&title=%E2%80%9D

How can I get around this?

Hard to say without seeing your template files (or the relevant parts of it).

The parsing, or whatever it is doing, is not taking place within my template file, but rather in a gl system file.

regardless here is a copy of my template code.
Text Formatted Code

<div class="mpart">
    <span class="story-icons">  
       
        &nbsp;{email_icon}
       &nbsp;{print_icon}&nbsp;{pdf_icon}
       <a rel="nofollow" href=”http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.shredthenews.com/article.php?story={story_id}&title=”><img src="images/social/delicious.gif" title="Bookmark on del.icio.us"></a>

       <a  rel="nofollow" href=”http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://www.shredthenews.com/article.php?story={story_id}”><img src="images/social/digg.gif" title="Bookmark on Digg"></a>

The quote sign after the href= doesn't look like a regular quote. It's some Unicode character that only looks like one ...
