I am not the only FF user affected by this for this site as confirmed by others. at http://eternalwars.com they have a help section. all pages that use the <a href="..\(insert directory\(insert page)">(insert text here)</a> type linking do not load in Firefox but do in Internet Explorer. what shows up at the bottom when I hover over the links are, for example of one of the pages, http://eternalwars.com/help/..\help\Help_Skills.php which gives a 404 error since it is supposed to go to http://eternalwars.com/help/Help_Skills.php All the pages on that site that use that type of <a href="..\dir\page">text</a> code give 404 errors.

Yes that will happen when using backslashes - \ in URL's.

Slashes - / are needed.

any way for firefox users to get around this, like an addon or configuration change? many people who go to the site I listed would like to know.
