User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3 StumbleUpon/1.9995

There is a link at the bottomo of the following web page: 
http://www.nasa.gov/centers/ames/news/releases/2005/05_28AR.html to a
sourceforge page.  The link is as follows:  http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net

Using a macintosh keyboard and "apple-clicking" to open the window in a new tab
the following URL is generated: 
javascript:openNASAWindow('http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net/') which does
not work.  The link works OK if it is just clicked on (without holding down the
apple key).  It opens the web page in a new window correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to  http://www.nasa.gov/centers/ames/news/releases/2005/05_28AR.html
2.  Click on the link at the bottom of the page 
http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net, while holding down the apple key (to open
in a new tab).
3.  The following malformed address occurs in the new tab 
javascript:openNASAWindow('http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net/')


Actual Results:  
A malformed URL address is generated in a new tab: 
javascript:openNASAWindow('http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net/')

Expected Results:  
The web page (http://javapathfinder.sourceforge.net) should have opened
correctly in a new tab.
