From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.4+) Gecko/20010927 BuildID: 2001092703 On several web sites that I use, the submission of a form causes the page to reload, rather than loading the page that the form is suppoed to bring up. I don't know much about the HTTP protocol, but have done some testing, please see below. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. As an example, got to http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html 2. Click on the "Continue" button next to "Download class files 2.3" 3. You are presented with a lisence. Scroll down to the bottom, click the "I accept" button. Actual Results: The page simply reloads. Expected Results: A Download page should be displayed, with a group of buttons indicating download sites, etc. We (the company I work for) has an interal timesheet web app, and Mozilla exibits the same behaviour when using it. Here's what Mozilla sends from the login page: ---------------------------------------------------------------- POST /scripts/wts.dll?FpLogin HTTP/1.1 Host: digby-esp User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.4+) Gecko/20010927 Accept: text/xml, application/xml, application/xhtml+xml, text/html;q=0.9, image/png, image/jpeg, image/gif;q=0.2, text/plain;q=0.8, text/css, */*;q=0.1 Accept-Language: en, pdf;q=0.50 Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, compress;q=0.9 Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1, utf-8;q=0.66, *;q=0.66 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Content-Length: 27 Alias=zjacobson&Pwd=alberta ---------------------------------------------------------------- and here's what is returned when I send that header and data to the same place. ---------------------------------------------------------------- HTTP/1.1 100 Continue Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0 Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2001 20:02:26 GMT MicrosoftOfficeWebServer: 5.0_Pub HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0 Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2001 20:02:26 GMT MicrosoftOfficeWebServer: 5.0_Pub Connection: close Refresh: 0; url='?Go' <HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML> ---------------------------------------------------------------- The connection closes imediately after the final '>' there's no newline. Like I say, I don't know that much about HTTP. I got the headers by using IE to get the contents of the web page, editing the source to point to my own machine, and running a simple Java app that just prints out what it hears, and returns some simple HTML. I then copied what mozilla sent me, changed the Host line, and used telnet to send it to the machine it was meant for.

Reporter: Is this still occuring for you in a more recent build? http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-win32-talkback.zip (as always, be sure to delete your old Mozilla directory before installing the new one) -> Form Submission

I just got Build 2001102903, erased everything (except the plugins directory) and installed the talkback build. I followed exactly the steps I outlined before, and suffered the same results. ... is it possible that this is an environment problem? I've had a different form submission problem with Mozilla before (couldn't submit to a dll), when I was using NT, but the bug got marked as WFM. It wasn't until I did a full harddisk format and a clean install of win2000 that it started working again. Zac (Reporter)

Zac: Have you tried a fresh profile? You can manage/create profiles with "mozilla.exe -profilemanager".

Zac: I tried the example you gave for Sun, and I got the error "ftp.java.sun.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again." However, downloads from alternate mirror sites was fine :-/.

Alex: My browser never gets to the page where you can download anything. It just displays the license agreement over and over. I tried the cache things in the bug that this is apparently a duplicate of, and that definitely solved the problem for the sun page. Thanks. Zac.
