I can confirm this behavior with Polarion. It stopped working after upgrade to FF 41.0.1

To elaborate:

If you go to a page with a list of items, e.g. "Work items -> Requirements", the item list loads and re-loads without ever stopping.

Maybe you first have to create such an item in your test account first.

Polarion has promised upgrades to solve this problems.

Their issues:

DPP-94168 - Firefox 41: Work items table reloading constantly
DPP-94185 - FF41: Can not open any document having space in name

So it seems it's a problem on their side.

Seems to work with 45.0a1 (2015-12-10) without a fix from Polarion.

Comment 7

[Peter Schuetz]

Got a workaround for this bug:
about:config 
set "dom.url.getters_decode_hash" to true

May be, they changed the default value of this item?

Yes, https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/9a04997eec28#l7.12

The relevant site compatibility doc is here: https://www.fxsitecompat.com/en-US/docs/2015/urlutils-hash-no-longer-decodes-fragment/

If it's broken on Firefox 41+, it's probably broken on Safari as well.

These should be fixed in 2015 SR2 (and also SR3, presumably), see https://www.polarion.com/downloads/readme?dl=resolved_workitems.html .

Can we resolve this as WFM?
