1217371 - Textbox is encoding text values

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Tobias]

Attachment: Screenshots of behaviour in FF41 and Opera

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0
Build ID: 20151014143721

Steps to reproduce:

Using Klocwork 10.2.1 we usually can look at the list of issues by clicking on the "XXX open" issues link


Actual results:

The search textbox content of the "issues" page is URLEncoded since Firefox 41 - no issues can be searched for anymore and being displayed.



Expected results:

The search textbox content should not be URLEncoded (worked up to Firefox 40 - always reproducable, also on other computers), so that the search works.

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

That's likely caused by the change in bug 1093611.

From https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/41#Miscellaneous :
> The URLUtils.hash property no longer decodes URL fragment (bug 1093611).

The site, not Firefox, has to fix the issue.

So you (or IT admin in your company) need to ask Klocwork if the issue would be fixed by upgrading to the latest version of Klocwork.

I see, thank you Yoshino-san - they already take action and plan to fix it in their next release.
