I don't know if this is relevant, but I've had trouble with firefox and
javascript: URLs in other contexts.  The troublesome link was something like

<a href="javascript:document.doStuff()">...

It worked fine in google chrome, but firefox would sort of partially evaluate
document.doStuff(), and show me a page with a couple of lines of javascript
from somewhere in the dojo toolkit that I'm using.  I was able to get the link
to work in firefox by changing it to

<a href="javascript:document.doStuff();void(0);">...

which makes no sense to me, but it worked.
