Title: Copy Link Location adds %20 where spaces should be in JAVASCRIPT links (messes up the js function when pasting somewhere else) Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox-3.0 on this page: http://www.streamingfaith.com/directory/network.aspx?nsn=ABLFC there is a link that reads "Click here to view now!" The HREF is javascript:OpenPopup('/faithpass/index.aspx?nsn=ABLFC', _sWindowName, _iWidth, _iHeight, _sScrollYesNo, _sResizableYesNo); When you right click the text link, however, and select Copy Link Location, Firefox (3.0+ only) converts the spaces between the JS variables into %20. This is fine for standard HTTP:// links, but it breaks the javascript link when I try to paste it elsewhere. It looks like this: javascript:OpenPopup('/faithpass/index.aspx?nsn=ABLFC',%20_sWindowName,%20_iWidth,%20_iHeight,%20_sScrollYesNo,%20_sResizableYesNo); Every time I copy a link this way, i have to paste it into a text editor and then replace all "%20" with a space. Then i have to recopy that if I want to paste the link somewhere else. This did NOT happen in Firefox 2.x browsers. This is something I use DAILY at work (I work for Streaming Faith) and it really makes things difficult, because when (not if) I forget to remove the %20s, the javascript function doesn't run.
