Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

[Daniel André]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020826
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020826

I don't know if it is the same bug as #82534, but when I do this, I can not type
anything in the text field:

If I paste a address in the form of username:pwd@80.232.100.100:9080 and it refuses
to accept, or the address doesn't exist, it locks up. I ave to manually close the 
tab or window that is open, and open it again. (the ip-address provided is just a 
sample, so is the port number - it could be any ip/port, even port 80)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

If I paste a address in the form of username:pwd@80.232.100.100:9080 and it
refuses to accept, or the address doesn't exist, it locks up. I ave to manually
close the tab or window that is open, and open it again. (the ip-address
provided is just a sample, so is the port number - it could be any ip/port, even
port 80)
Actual Results:  
The location-field can not be entered into, either by typing, or paste.

Expected Results:  
Nothing special. Just NOT locking up the location text-field.

Just adding that even though I'm posting this with an old build, I can reproduce
it with all builds up to the latest nightly.

linux trunk cvs 2002-10-11, 2002-10-10-11-1.0:

username:pwd@80.232.100.100:9080
 cvs -> username is not a registered protocol.
 2002-10-10-11-1.0 -> connection refused, no bad effects

http://username:pwd@80.232.100.100:9080
 cvs -> connection refused, no bad effects
 2002-10-10-11-1.0 -> connection refused, no bad effects


Reporter, please describe
  - an example of what _exactly_ to type in the url bar and how, to trigger the bug
  - useragent string / build id from Help > About Mozilla

bug 82534 comment 367 sounds similar

WORKSFORME linux build 2002113005 trunk.

i see "username" is not a registered protocol handler, which is the expected error.

reporter: please test using a recent nightly build (e.g., one of the december
builds). thx!

marking WORKSFORME... please REOPEN if problem occurs with a newer build.
