Details

I was using the Bugzilla helper to file a build bug, which meant I was including the phrase "g++" a lot. After I got through the build page, I discovered that every instance of "g++" had been changed to "g " -- i.e., plus signs were converted to spaces. I was able to fix this by hand on the actual bug reporting page, but this shouldn't be happening. (The bug in question was 28699, if you're curious.)
what browser and version are you using? thanks

Verified. The '+' character needed to be properly escaped or it would be tret as a space. This now works fine in the helper
