Description Tom Chiverton 2011-02-14 19:40:46 UTC
Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

When viewing a HTML mail message, I highlight a term I want to look up, copy it and then paste it into the FireFox address bar to start a search.
FireFox sees this as a blob of HTML.

From what I understand, FireFox just grabs whatever was shoved into the clipboard, so this is a KDE issue. I tried with konsole just to check, and that has the same issue.

Reproducible: Always
