Mozilla incorrectly changes some of the backslashes in this link into forward slashes: <a href="javascript:with(window.open('about:blank').document){write('<script src=\'http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~jruderma/mozilla/proptree/proptree.js\'></script>\n ');write('<script>writeInterface(\'opener.document\')</script>\n');}">property tree</a> See also bug 47380.
