Ok so our email's are filtered from our AntiVirus software and we get a Quarantine Summary every day. In that summary we can Release or Delete the emails. Well everything worked fine until they changed the format of the Quarantine Summary. Now when you click the Release or Delete button its like it trys to open the link in Thunderbird. That link brings you to a confirmation page asking are you sure you want to do what you click. Well because it opened that link inside of Thunderbird you can not click the confirmation button. You can right click the button and say Open Link in Browser and everything works fine. The only thing I can see that has changed is they added a button tag around the link? Orginal link <a href="#">Release</a> New Format <a href="#"><button>Release</button></a> I dont understand why just adding a button would cause the link to try and open inside of Thunderbird.

ok I just tested this. Any link that is in a <button> tag is opening inside of Thunderbird instead of the browser. What can I do to fix this??

I would suggest filing a bug. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org

If you do please copy a link to this topic. I would like to follow along as that should not happen in my opinion.
