The above mentioned URL will not open correctly if firefox is already running. The URL passed to firefox, through, openurl is truncated to: http://nl.internet.com/ct.html?rtr=on&s=1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-1.5-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Execute /usr/lib/firefox-1.5/mozilla-xremote-client -a firefox 'openurl(http://nl.internet.com/ct.html?rtr=on&s=1,22fr,1,hfcu,kuvm,jjrf,fhg)' The above was glommed from debugging /usr/bin/firefox 3.

Problem seems to be fixed in the latest 1.5 release. Tested under firefox-1.5.0.3-2 (rawhide). MIght be related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304000 Bob...
We just updated the Firefox version in Fedora/development from 2.0 to a 3.0 pre-release version, which improves performance, memory usage, and fixes many bugs and crashes. Closing as CANTFIX since we aren't fixing bugs filed against 2.0 now that 3.0 is in. If this bug is still present in rawhide using a Firefox 3.0 version, please re-open this bug. Thanks and Happy Holidays
