Title:
  URL "smb://..." works in location bar & tool bar, not as link

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Some of my bookmarks are for files accessed over the network, with
  URLs of the form

  smb://ray/D-DRIVE/...

  [This is a Windows shared drive.]

  I like to make my bookmarks file my homepage, but if I do, these
  particular links don't work.  Yet if I "copy link location" and paste
  it into the location bar, it works just fine.

  Likewise, if I put such a bookmark in the "bookmarks toolbar folder",
  the button in the bookmarks toolbar works.
