I got an email from NetFlix telling me a movie is on the way, and the message contains this tag: <a href=3D"http://www.netflix.com/MovieDisplay?&movieid=3D70068654&trkid=3D1767";>Vitus</a> When I copy the link location in the visible email (I use Evolution) I get this URL: http://www.netflix.com/MovieDisplay?&movieid=70068654&trkid=1767 But when I click it and it opens the browser, Firefox winds up with this in the location box: http://www.netflix.com//Movie?amp;trkid=1767&movieid=70068654 It has added a slash before "Movie" and omitted the "&" between the "?" and "amp;". It's also failed to convert the "&"s to "&"s. This doesn't work. But if I edit the URL manually to say this: http://www.netflix.com/Movie?&trkid=1767&movieid=70068654 ...it works. Either Evolution of Firefox is dropping the ball here.
