The tx hash is in reverse byte order. What this means is that in order to get the html transaction hash from the JSON tx hash for the following transaction, you need to decode the hex. This will produce a binary output, which you need to reverse (the last 8bits/1byte move to the front, second to last 8bits/1byte needs to be moved to second, etc.). Then once the reversed bytes are decoded, you will get the html transaction hash.
