10615 - Linux - Location control updated incorrectly w/dnloads

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[cpratt]

Build ID: 1999072708
Platform: RH Linux 6 (Mac OS and Win32 broken differently)

To reproduce:

- Go to the above URL
- Follow the link that reads 'Download for Windows 95/NT/98'
- This should take you to http://www.zdnet.com/swlib/yahoo/

Result: You are (correctly) taken to that URL, but the Location: control now
reads 'http://rd.yahoo.com/pager/zd/?http://download.yahoo.com/dl/ymsgr.exe'
instead (or similar).

Expected result: The Location control should be updated in that manner. When
files are downloaded, the Location control should not be changed to reflect the
URI for the files.

Not sure why these are being assigned to me...don, can you parcel out as
appropriate?

Accepting for M10, but this sounds like a duplicate of another problem related
to redirected URLs not showing up in the urlbar properly.

Chris, do you still see this?

I'm really sorry, but I can't tell you if I see this, because I no longer have 
access to a Linux system (I've since changed roles in the company). Perhaps 
Claudius would be so kind as to update this bug? Thanks!

this works fine in a 2001032708 linux build. marking WFM. I believe it is really the same
isssue law@netscape mentioned on 08-02-1999!
