In GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu)
of 2008-10-30 on brabbelbox
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.10502000
configured using `configure 'CC=gcc''
`browse-url-firefox': There is an encoding of chars of the url at the
beginning.
;; URL encode any `confusing' characters in the URL. This needs to
;; include at least commas; presumably also close parens.
(while (string-match "[,)]" url)
(setq url (replace-match
(format "%%%x" (string-to-char (match-string 0 url))) t t url)))
For the _encoded_ url the displayed page in FF 3.0.10 is not the page
displayed when copying the _unencoded_ url directly in the browser
adress bar.
I tested this also by directly copying the urls into Opera 9.64 AND even
encoding the url with `browse-url-firefox' from current CVS emacs.
Regards,
Christoph

Thanks, I've checked in a change that removes the encoding of commas.
(It's possible the entire encoding process is bogus, but I left the rest
in place for now.)
