372377 - Fragment identifiers confuse SVG/xlink relative URI processing

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: SVG, defect)

Description

[Sam Ruby]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0.0.2 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0.0.2 (Ubuntu-edgy)

The URL listed above should render identically with or without the fragment identifier, but in fact if any fragment identifier is present, constructs such as fill="url(#pyBlue)" don't resolve.

Another example, this time using xlink, is provided in the "Steps to Reproduce" section.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit 
http://www.intertwingly.net/blog/2007/02/05/Show-Me#unknown

Actual Results:  
Only the outline of the image appears

Expected Results:  
To see the expected results, remove "#unknown" from the URI in step 1.  The image should be filled in with a radialGradient.

On OS X, I can reproduce this on the branch, but not on the trunk.

Nor does the problem manifest itself on the 02-Mar-2007 version of firefox-3.0a3pre.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2.

As this bug is not a priority, it should summarily be closed.

It would be nice to find out what fixed this, and see if it is low-risk enough to ship in an update to Firefox 2. (which is cut from the 1.8 branch)

marking in-testsuite?, as we still need to get this in reftest

This was fixed between the 2005-10-17 and 2005-10-19 builds:

My guess is that this was fixed by 309020.
