215316 - browser loads page source twice

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[Eric St. Onge]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030715 Camino/0.7+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030715 Camino/0.7+

On the URL above, mozilla-based mac browsers load the page twice. The server
logs show a duplicate request for the index page (Note that I changed the IP):

x.x.x.x - - [06/Aug/2003:16:13:06 -0400] "GET /index.php?action=map HTTP/1.1"
200 2030 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5b)
Gecko/20030715 Camino/0.7+"

x.x.x.x - - [06/Aug/2003:16:13:06 -0400] "GET /index.php?action=map HTTP/1.1"
200 2034 "http://lightpink.agorastudios.com/index.php?action=map" "Mozilla/5.0
(Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030715 Camino/0.7+"

The first request is correct.

The second request loads the page a second time, and the referrer is getting set
to the first request.

This problem only seems to occur on the URL above. It does not occur in
Windows-based Mozilla or Firebird.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the URL above
2. Click anywhere on the map (it should recenter to where you click)
3. Click the map again (note it will not recenter where you click this time.)
Actual Results:  
Mozilla loads the page source twice. This can be seen by the unexpected behavior
of the map.

Expected Results:  
Load the page source once.

can you attach (via "create a new attachment") a HTTP log for the particular
session where you observed this behaviour ?
See instructions here:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/http/http-debugging.html

does it happen with Mozilla latest nightly build (you appear to use Camino) ?

This bug seems to have gone away with builds from within the past day or two (both in Mozilla and 
Camino.)

Thanks.
