It looks like a bug to me. The problem is similar to the one described
in http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=772.

You might want to report a new bug, as this is BE-related (while #772 is
FE-related).

The problem is template::getTabMenu() generates the url, and passes it
through "htmlspecialchars". Then calls template::getTabMenuRaw(), which
will then render the A-tag, but will pass the url again through
htmlspecialchars. My comment from on #772 from 10.11.05 17:00 you can
see that if we follow my 4-step instructions, we need to: generate the
URL in its raw mode in getTabMenu() and then just pass it through
htmlspecialchars right before generating the A-tag.

So the fix would be to remove the "htmlspecialchars()" call in
getTabMenu(), leaving it just in getTabMenuRaw().

Cheers,
