Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 64488

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Garry Hawes]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4

In the page at www.pamperedchef.biz/maggiehawes, the JPG picture won't load. 
When you click on "view image," the browser gives a 404 Not Found Error.  The
link in the 404 error gives the correct URL for the JPG,
(/images/gallery\US\homepagesep05_gs_classic_coll.JPG); however, the address bar
link is incorrect for the JPG,
(http://www.pamperedchef.biz/images/gallery%5CUS%5Chomepagesep05_gs_classic_coll.JPG).
The "\" in the correct URL have been changed to "%5C" causing the browser to not
find the image.  If the correct URL link is copied and pasted into the address
bar, the address bar changes the link.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the following address, "http://www.pamperedchef.biz/maggiehawes"
2. Right click choose "view image"
3. Compare browser URL to address bar URL
4. Copy "/images/gallery\US\homepagesep05_gs_classic_coll.JPG" and paste it into
the address bar after "http://www.pamperedchef.biz"
5. The address bar will change the "\" in the URL into "%5C".

Actual Results:  
404 Not Found error message.  Image won't load.

Expected Results:  
View the JPG picture of stoneware.

I'm running the Firefox 1.5 beta.  My wife uses Firefox 1.0.6, the problem
exists in both versions.
