At the moment, they are all appearing with the tilde mark. Something I 
just discovered via my experiment last night though - the tilde is 
consistently displaying as "%7E" when converted to plain text within 
Mozilla. Thus a few links from the photo title page end up like this:

*"Kurihama"* 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/Kurihama01a.html>* 
**"Another Time"* 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/AnotherTime01a.html>* 
**"Along the Way..."* 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/PhotoGlryA/AlongTheWay.html>

- and linked links (that's to say linked text that is a link itself) 
becomes:

http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/~LLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/Kurihama01a.html 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/Kurihama01a.html>

http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/~LLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/AnotherTime01a.html 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/pgb/AnotherTime01a.html>

http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/~LLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/PhotoGlryA/AlongTheWay.html 
<http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/%7ELLLtrs/PhotoGlryMain/PhotoGlryA/AlongTheWay.html>

So... it's at least partly (wholly?) a Mozilla problem then?
