Package: iceweasel
Version: 24.3.0esr-1
Severity: normal
Dear iceweasel maintainers,
Starting with this version, all but the most simple javascript
bookmarklets fail miserably with unexpected syntax error messages
(even though they were woprking fine before).
Digging a bit, it looks like, while iceweasel converts to
URL-encoded strings upon saving the bookmarklet, it does not decode
the string anymore, so
javascript:{alert("stuff")};
works, but
javascript:{ alert("stuff")};
does not work anymore, because its is converted to
javascript:{%20alert("stuff")};
and run like that (syntax error).
I didn't find any report of this problem in upstream's bugzilla, but
didn't conduct an extensive search.
Editing the .json bookmarks storage does not seem to do the joc.
Best regards,
Vincent
