331683 - importing bookmarks corrupts links with parameters

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 273886

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[u239427]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; OpenSuse Linux 10.0; de; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1

If there are two or more parameters in a link that are separated by "&", Firefox imports that character as "&". So the original link does not work anymore until you correct it manually.

example: http://www.example.de/index.php?a=1&b=2 is imported as
http://www.example.de/index.php?a=1&b=2

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure, you have a bookmark with more than 1 parameter as described in the details.
2. Export your bookmarks to a file.
3. Re-Import your bookmarks from that file.
4. Klick on the re-imported bookmark.
Actual Results:  
The re-imported link will fail.

Expected Results:  
import URLs without processing of html entities
