1022233 - Reload shows instead of go to

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 610357

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[trondsg+bugzilla+mozilla]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140428193813

Steps to reproduce:

Open new tab. The address bar shows "search or enter address". Type in the address of a server that doesn't respond. (NOTE: an invalid domain that gives the "Server not found" page doesn't have this problem.) I used last.fm, which didn't respond at the time.

I got impatient, so I wanted to try a new request (helps sometimes). So I cliked the stop (X) icon in the address bar. The address bar still shows last.fm and a reload icon. I cliked this reload icon.


Actual results:

I expected this icon to try to reload last.fm, but all it did was clearing my address bar.


Expected results:

Try again to load last.fm (the url in the address bar).

Clicking in the address bar first gives the expected behaviour where firefox tries to load the url again (the reload icons transforms into a go icon in this case).

I guess this due to bug 610357.
