1069280 - Cache bug in FireFox 32 when posting forms with an offline manifest file

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1065478

(Core :: Networking: Cache, defect)

Description

[FormLink]

Attachment: CacheBugDemo.zip - A Visual Studio 2012 ASP.NET project that demonstrates the bug.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0
Build ID: 20140911151253

Steps to reproduce:

Create a simple application that accepts an HttpPost and returns a different content when the post is received.  Ensure the html tag includes a valid manifest attribute.


Actual results:

For some reason, FireFox 32 redisplays the form page instead of posting and displaying the response.  However, if I remove the manifest attribute, the post works correctly and displays the response.


Expected results:

The response page should be displayed.  This works in FireFox 31 as well as Safari, Chrome, and Internet Explorer (all versions).  FireFox 32 is broken (tested on Mac and Windows).
