In an earlier work we showed that for ordered fields F not isomorphic to the reals R, there are continuous 1-1 unctions on [0, 1]F which map some interior point to a boundary point of the image (and so are not open). Here we show that over closed bounded intervals in the rationals Q as well as in all non-Archimedean ordered fields of countable cofinality, there are uniformly continuous 1-1 functions not mapping interior to interior. In particular, the minimal non-Archimedean ordered field Q(x), as well as ordered Laurent series fields with coefficients in an ordered field accommodate such pathological functions.
