Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 216170

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Ahmet Serkan Tıratacı]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; tr-TR; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; tr-TR; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

Mozilla Firebird sends broken link through Thunderbird when you click "Send
Link" in context menu, while viewing a news page at Yahoo! News site at
http://news.yahoo.com.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the link and click on a news page
2. Right click to send the link
Actual Results:  
On Thunderbird's compose window, I see a "broken" link, which is not the same as
the link I tried to send. I wanted to send
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=540&e=2&u=/ap/20040101/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_earthquake
link, however, Thunderbird tries to send
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story which means that Mozilla Firebird
does not recognize the rest of the link beginning from & sign.

Expected Results:  
Should be able to send the complete URL.
