Firefox with URL doesn't open url

more options

On a Citrix environment I installed Firefox (next to the default IE). I want FireFox to open a specific URL so I create a shortcut that looks like this: ""C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" <servername>:<port>/cid/Application.do"

But everytime I log in as a user, I get a blank FF page instead of the webpage that's in my shortcut. It just simply seems to ignore it. The URL can be opened in FF, but it doesn't want to do it automatically.

I reinstalled FF, but that didn't help.

Solved. The placing of the "" did the trick. Put the path to FF between "" , then a space and then the URL between "".
