Procedure: View the second link in the attached testcase.

I get:
JavaScript error:
line 0: syntax error
Error loading URL
javascript:info(%27Divide:%20%F7%20Copyright:%20%A9%20Paragraph:%20%B6%27) :
2152924149
This looks very familiar...

The alert doesn't come up because of the error in the JavaScript Console:
Error: syntax error
Source Code: info(%27Divide:%20%F7%20Copyright:%20%A9%20Paragraph:%20%B6%27)
Compare the testcase in bug 69043; you get a similar error.
