Another gopher 'page':
gopher://gopher.well.sf.ca.us/00/cyberpunk/cultjam.txt
This page displays, but never stops loading (the text never changes from
'Sending request to gopher.well.sf.ca.us'). Works in IE 6.0.2600.0000 and
WSGopher32 2.0.

Hmm. Sometimes the page just comes up blank when I open a new window, paste in
the URL and try again. Alyways works in IE and WSGopher32.
I should mention that I am using Mozilla 1.0 (2002053012) on Windows 2000. Sorry
about the two emails in a row.

WFM 1.1 alpha, Windows 98. Reporter, can you reproduce this with a new profile?

Downloaded 1.2a, created a new Mozilla profile, on Win2K. Problem still
persists. "Stop" button won't stop the throbber, but I can type in a
"http://" url and the next page will load.
I have also tested this under MacOS X 10.2 with Mozilla 1.2a and the
page loads without any problems. This almost appeaprs to be a Win2K
specific issue. Can anyone else confirm this? Maybe the gopher code
has incompatibilities with the Win2K network implementation?

Someone filed (in the last week or so) a bug against gopher not working and
included a 'patch'. The patch is wrong, but it points to what broke this.
Don't have hte bug # off hand, but there aren't that many gopher bugs. :)

What I see now is that the load completes, but the tranfer status never updates
from "transfering". This happens if you click the link -or- open as new window.
This does not happen, for some reason, if you open as new tab in the background.

Same problem with Mozilla 1.2 for BeOS.
Please change OS to All.
Oddly enough, the root page of Gopher sites sometimes (very rarely) does open,
but the internal links never do.
This behavior is shared with Mozilla 1.2.1 and Phoenix 0.4 on Windows.
A work-around that I mentioned in Bug 184180 is to use a Proxy server:
File>>Prefs>>Advanced>>Proxies>>Gopher Proxy: host005.answer.co.jp Port:80
Prog.

Revisting the links with Mozilla 1.4rc1 these pages now load fine. I recommend
QAing this issue and closing it.

Just to confirm I have tested this with MacOS X and Windows 2000 SP2 and it
works. I am not in a position to verify Linux or Windows 98.

I can confirm it works on Windows 98.
