I suspect you specified a link-local address with the "%link-ID"
suffix like:
http://[fe80::1%lo0]/

For simplicity, just forget link-local addresses (unless it's
absolutely necessary, which I don't believe is the case here).
Dealing with link-local addresses in normal applications is very
tricky, and doing so for the URL is particularly problematic because
the conflict meaning of the '%' character.

Global (or even the loopback) addresses that don't require the %
notation should work fine, for example,
http://[2001:1890:1112:1::20]/
has just led my firefox on Leopard to www.ietf.org.
