I had the same problem. I found if I had the MAP open in SL then click on the SURL in the browser it would populate the coordinates in the MAP. Then click the Teleport button in the map window and you're off.

One problem occurs if the region name in the SLURL has a space, and is not URL encoded. For example if the name of the region is "Foo Isles", but the SLURL looks like "secondlife://Foo Isles/128/128/0", Safari won't launch the link. If the SLURL looks like this, "secondlife://Foo%20Isles/128/128/0", it works properly.

This isn't an SL problem at all, because it's Safari refusing to launch the link.

Any SLURLs that either have no spaces or are properly URL encoded launch fine for me from Safari. I haven't tried it with Firefox.
