User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Today I have downloaded the Mozilla 1.4 version and tried to access a secure site (a banking site). The main page asks me to enter userd ID and passwd and on clicking submit it takes me to my current statement page. So far so good. Now on clicking account reconcillation tab (or Previous statement tab) it just throws me out of the secure session by showing a new page which asks me to select a service offered by e-statement. Selecting the relevent option takes me to the main (or the first) page and again asks me to enter the username/password. Clicking back button takes me to the current statement page. I was using 1.4b in the morning and it was working perfectly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: In case you have an account with e-statement. 1. Go to https://www.e-statement.com/microdynamics/CU3601400/frame/Frame.htm 2. Enter User Id and password. This will show the current statement. 3. Client Account reconcilation tab or previous statement Tab. 4. Press back button. Actual Results: It takes me to the logout page and shows a pull down menu to selct services offered by e-statement.com. The back button also takes me to the last page accessed (current statement). Expected Results: Should have showed a pull down menu to select the period for previous statements. The back button should show me the screen where I need to enter login/password and then it should take me to the current screen. This page was working with 1.4b.
This log file captures my session with e-satatment. Please use Winzip to unzip the file.
Ca you please try it again with a new profile ?
This problem is coming even with a new profile. Netscape 7.1 with a new profile also shows the same output ("Actual Results"). As I had mentioned that Mozilla 1.4b is working fine, please let me know in case you need the log file for the same session with e-statement using Mozilla 1.4b.
I tried to compare the HTTP requests for e-statement in Mozilla 1.4b (working) and Mozilla 1.4 (not working). All the requests are same except one GET request. GET /ibilling.sph/microdynamics.class/MainServlet HTTP/1.1 The strange part for this request is the referer field is same as the request itself. Referer: https://www.e- statement.com/ibilling.sph/microdynamics.class/MainServlet I made a debug build from the latest trunk on 2nd June to find out who is initiating such a request. Here is the call stack for this request: nsHttpChannel::Init() nsHttpHandler::NewProxiedChannel() nsHttpsHandler::NewProxiedChannel() nsIOService::NewChannelFromURI() NS_NewChannel() NewImageChannel() imgLoader::LoadImage() nsImageLoader::Load() nsPresContext::LoadImage(nsPresContext * const 0x035d1b80, const nsString & {"https://www.e-statement.com/ibilling.sph/microdynamics.class/MainServlet"}, nsIFrame * 0x0375bd38, imgIRequest * * 0x0012f014) nsCSSRendering::PaintBackgroundWithSC() nsCSSRendering::PaintBackground() nsFrame::PaintSelf() nsHTMLContainerFrame::PaintSelf() nsHTMLContainerFrame::Paint() CanvasFrame::Paint() PresShell::Paint() nsView::Paint() nsViewManager::RenderDisplayListElement() nsViewManager::RenderViews() nsViewManager::Refresh() nsViewManager::DispatchEvent() HandleEvent(nsGUIEvent * 0x0012f77c) 1. Why this page (or request) is assumed as a background image (nsCSSRendering::PaintBackground) ? The content type returned in the reposne header is text/html. 2. The request finally gets cancelled because the content type is text/html ("imgRequest::OnDataAvailable -- Decoder not available"). It seems to me a problem related to either style sheet handling (The e- statement page has a style sheet "styles.css") or while painting the page it by mistake generates a request for background image. I even tried to compare the mozilla\layout\html directory in Mozilla 1.4b and the latest trunk (on 2nd June) but the differences are too many for a novice like me to make anything out of them. My suggestion is to assign some expert to verify the changes made (enhancements or any bug fixes) between 1.4b and the 2nd June in the layout section. I am willing to spend time to fix the bug but know nothing about the style sheets or painting of pages. Although I have done some work in the HTTP protocol section. Please provide some pointers from where I can start finding the exact cause for this problems. Thanks and Regards -Pawan
