This is the second time this has happened. I hope I can explain myself well enough for those with power to look into the problem.

Basically, it seems that when I am on certain pages the "Perl Monks" link at the top of the page takes me to /index.pl/index.pl which, for me is a "Search Results" page page searching for "index.pl".

These are the links I followed to arrive at Search Results when trying to get to The Monastery Gates.

From page Re^4: I prefer to wear... I clicked on the following link, I prefer to wear..., which takes me to the current poll, "I prefer to wear...". From there, when I click "Perl Monks" I am taken to "Search Results" as opposed to The Monastery Gates.

I took a look at the source and found the link to The Monastery Gates constructed like such: 
<a class =" titlebar"
             href  =" index.pl"
        >

            Perl&nbsp;Monks
          </a>

Could that whitespace in the href be the problem? Is it just me or can any of you recreate this?
