Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.61 [de] (OS/2; U)
BuildID:    2000102005

This badly coded page has some urls in it that are formatted with 
linebreaks. When clicking on such a link, mozilla obviously requests 
only the first line of the url, resulting in the wrong page beeing 
shown.

I understand that this may be not a real mozilla bug but a bug in their 
html code, but other browsers (Netscape, IE) cope with it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open page http://www.mint-data.de/cgi-bin/mint/shop.cgi?d=hdd
2. Select the link "Atapi" 



Actual Results:  the same page is loaded again

Expected Results:  a page showing a catalog of atapi drives should be 
loaded
Confirmed in Mac OS 10-24 branch.  However, I'm tempted to out in KW: evangelism.  
In the interest of neat code (and those guys code is very organized!) I'd like to 
see this one fixed-any spaces or new line characters should be stripped away...

Reassigning to pollmann. Eric, this is similar to the other linefeed stripping
issues your looking at.
