The example URL returns: HTTP/1.1 302 Found Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2003 04:31:37 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) PHP/4.2.2 mod_ssl/2.8.10 OpenSSL/0.9.6e X-Powered-By: PHP/4.2.2 Status: 302 Location: Connection: close Content-Type: text/html This hangs MozillaFirebird (CVS build as of Fri 20 June 2003). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Go to http://www.dotster.com/favicon.ico in MozillaFirebird. Actual Results: MozillaFirebird hangs with 100% CPU usage. I can enter new URLs but they don't load. Expected Results: Unknown. Treat as 404? Using gentoo, with package net-www/mozilla-firebird-cvs.
This trivial PHP script produces the same behavior: <?php header("HTTP/1.1 302 Found"); header("Test: abc"); header("Location: "); ?> Hello, world.
Zach, this works for me using latest Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030623 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 => please re-test with latest nightly, since I was able to see your problem using yesterdays nightly. Additionally this sounds like a dupe of bug #210047 since I can see the exact same regression time frame for your problem: the first build which shows both your problem and bug #210047 was the 2003-06-19 build. => adding whiteboard & keywords, changing OS to "All"

Whiteboard: WFM? possible dupe of #210047
Depends on: 210047
WFM with 20030622 build
Rebuilt from CVS as at 2003-06-27. Bug is fixed. It seems to simply ignore the invalid 'Location' header, which sounds reasonable.
Erik, tracing through the bugs, the real bug I would dupe this under is bug 210119, since that's the one that the fix is under. 210119 IDs this as a regression caused by the fix for bug 208845. I should really bug Gerv about getting editbugs at some point, instead of all these "Erik can you do this, can you do that?" comments!
Yeap, I'll dupe this because of bug #210119 - that's also the one to dupe bug #210047 like already mentioned there... => removing status and dependency *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 210119 ***
