Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 155344

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[Colin Lear]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827

When a port is specified in a URL without putting the protocol, (eg:
'google.com:80' it displays the error google.com is not a protocol.

It looks like it is trying to treat anything before the first : in a url as a
protocol rather than just a list of valid protocols.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. type 'google.com:80' in location bar and press enter


Actual Results:  
brings up an error google.com is not a valid protocol.

Expected Results:  
It should recognise this as a URL with a port specified and redirect using the
default protocol accordingly
