Bug description:
Firefox (package: firefox 17.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.12.10.1) has several
search engines pre-installed. One is labelled "Chambers (UK)". This
search link is broken:
When, for example, putting in the search term "Test", then Firefox
goes to the following URL
www.chambersharrap.co.uk/chambers/chref/chref.py/main?query=Test&title=21st&sourceid
=Mozilla-search
This results in the display of an error page ("HTTP Error 404 - File
or directory not found").
This error has been persistent for the past four weeks, suggesting a
fundamentally broken search link.
