134840 - View Source STILL doesn't work for form POSTs

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: View Source, defect)

Description

[Adam Batkin]

I am running Build 2002040108 which supposedly should have whatever fixes were
implemented by Bugs 55583 and 40867 and many others...

View Source STILL does not show the correct source...BUT at least it doesn't go
out across the network and re-post the form anymore...On the other hand, my
milestone .99 build didn't do that either. In fact, both builds do the exact
same thing:
They return the source for the URL that I originally accessed the page with. Let
me explain:
http://www.batkin.net/~abatkin/cgi-bin/test.pl
Is a very simple script. It dumps any form variables, prints out a POST form
(that POSTs to itself) and prints out the UNIX time.
If I simply open that URL, everything is fine. I can view the source, etc...
If I then fill out the form and submit it, the resulting URL is EXACTLY the same
as before (since it is POSTing to itself) but when I view the source to the new,
submitted page, I get the original source from when I first opened the URL. I
know this because the server log doesn't show any extra accesses, and the UNIX
timestamp is the same as the first access.

File-Save Page As actually works correctlyI and saves the correct version (well,
kinda, it actually mutilates the HTML but I really can't complain since the
script doesn't return valid HTML at all)
