& in URL no longer recognised

In SharePoint I am able to add a source to a link to redirect to a particular page. To do this I use &Source= in the url. The links always used to work in Firefox. However, now it comes up with an error and 'no item exists'. The same links work fine in other browsers. I presume something has changed in a recent update so that '&' is no longer recognised, but can this be corrected?

The & character is used in millions of URLs and should still work in yours. However, if source is the first or only parameter, you should leave out the & before Source. For example:

myscript.asp?param1=X&Source=Y

myscript.asp?Source=Y
