Can you reproduce with SeaMonkey v2.0a3?

Comment 2

[J. Bumblebee Extraordinaire]

I also have this problem.
My keyword searches for google.com doesn't work because the plus sign is interpreted by Firefox browser as a [space].

Since this is also a problem in Firefox, should a new bug report be created?

- display http://www.example.com/?id=1%2B2

Reporter, can you try and reproduce with SeaMonkey v2.0.3 or 2.1a1pre ? (2.1a1pre version isn't stable enough for everyone's daily use yet).

Results with SeaMonkey v2.0.3 are mixed.

http://www.ibm.com/search?q=%s&lv=w works correctly, with the plus sign encoded as %2B 

http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 still does not work and leaves a plus sign in the URL

I create bookmark "google" with URL http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 and keyword "google".

When I use google books+Linux , it display in address bar http://www.google.com/search?q=kniha%2BLinux&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 .

Please try in Safe mode ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Talk:Safe_Mode#Safe_Mode_in_SeaMonkey_2 ), or with a new profile ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile )

Tried this with a new profile and safe mode on 2.0.3:

Bookmark
URL: http://www.google.at/search?hl=de&source=hp&q=%s&meta=&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
Keyword: ga

Test case
Location: ga 1+2

[Jens Hatlak (:InvisibleSmiley)]

Strange, I cannot reproduce this either with a current SM 2.0 or SM 2.1 nightly.

Klaus, can you please try SM 2.1b1?
