Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:70.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/70.0
Steps to reproduce:
goto http://dcii.topcity.com/
click the zk link
Hit the refresh button.
Actual results:
It jumps back to the dcii.topcity.com (root) page.
Expected results:
It should refresh the page that was clicked and that im currently in.
It worked properly before I did an update. I know this website has a unique situation where it is using a non standard port for http. But, still, it used to work, and now it jumps back to the root page rather than any of the sub links.
Ie, when i used to click the ZK link, if i clicked REFRESH, it would refresh the ZK page and not jump back to the root page.
Ps, this happens no matter what link you click on the root page. I just used the ZK as a sample of how to re-produce.
The site should update and check fragment URL, it is not the responsibility of the browser.
Chrome does the same thing.
Please explain, it doesn't make sense to me.
Shouldn't you be able to utilize <a href="/zk">zk</a> and utilize a refresh.
Why must you add <a href="http://dcii.topcity.com/zk">zk</a> to make it work? The problem with this is then your hard coding subdomain etc which then makes it less portable?
I got them to update the site, but this is what he sent back to me, and i agree???
Well, its doing it again, i guess it has to do with using stealth mode for redirects to the non standard port. He is going to turn off stealth mode on the re-direct and see if that resolves the problem.
I still think this is a shortfall of Firefox.
I'm not sure what you mean, but you can check Gmail or other AJAX sites, they update URL fragment while navigation.
The site seems to have been updated, it updates the URL (previously not) when clicking 'zk' link, so the issue seems to have disappeared.

Hi Richard, I have tried to reproduce this issue on Windows 10, Firefox release v. 70.0.1 and the refresh button is loading the selected link properly. Are you still able to trigger this issue? Let me know if you need further assistance or I may close the issue. Regards, Flor.

Hi Richard,
I'm marking this as Resolved-Incomplete due to lack of response. If the issue is still reproducible with the latest Firefox version, feel free to reopen the bug with more information.
Regards, Clara.
