Firefox will lose a link in my Web page as pointing to the same folder as the page is in.

I have a Web page with a link to another Web page. The link is in the form < a href = "http://www.sitename.com"target = "new" >
In Internet Explorer, when I hover over the link http://www.sitename.com address appears at the bottom of the screen, and the page opens without any problem.

However, in Firefox when I hover over the link that appears at the bottom of the screen:

addressofcurrentpage /------www.sitename.com

and when I click on the link, I get a 404 message telling me that this page does not exist.

Why Firefox is my link for me address rewriting, and how can I get him to stop?

Yes, you must use http:// instead of http:// in the link. Basically, never use a backslash anywhere in a URL in Firefox.
