User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Build Identifier: (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.2) Gecko/20030208 Netscape/7.02 If I include my application in a frame then mozilla/netscape's throbber keep looping on solaris/win2k/linux. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Goto this site: http://sandesh.vsnl.com 2. Login with userid: reddy password: reddy 3. Create a new html file in your local file system (here is the html code): <html> <script> function close() { alert('Loaded') } </script> <frameset col=* row=* onload="close()"> <frame src="http://sandesh.vsnl.com/en/mail.html? sid=I/HutbYs9/4&lang=en&cert=false"> </frameset> </html> 4. Replace the src value of the above html with the new url you got in step 2. 5. Open the html file created in steps 3&4 in netscape/mozilla browser, notice that throbber keep looping and it goes for ever. Status bar shows that "Transferring data from sandesh.vsnl.com..." for ever. 6. Now, instead of keeping the above url inside the frame do it like this: <html> <script> window.location="http://sandesh.vsnl.com/en/mail.html? sid=I/HutbYs9/4&lang=en&cert=false" </script> </html> Note that: the window.location value should be replaced with the new URL generated in step 2 (after login) 7. Open the html edited in step 6 in netscape/mozilla browser.The problem is NOT reproducable. Note: If we open the above said url inside the frame then throbber goes for infinite loop but if we open as said in step 6 this problem will not appear. Now, is there a workaround to fix it? Actual Results: If we open the above said url inside the frame then throbber goes for infinite loop but if we open as said in step 6 this problem will not appear. Expected Results: throbber should have stopped after complete download Found that there is similar bug logged in bugzilla (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39310) but since it was for animated gif and my application is not using any animated gif so, logging new one
Also it is reproducable in: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 (ax)
I notice that if you put the login page in a frame, and then log in, then the throbber will stop when the page has loaded. Also, if you click back and reload, then you will get logged back in (cookies?), but the throbber will not stop until you mouseover (say) the logout button.

Ever confirmed: true
Thanks for the comments. I given this testcase just to reproduce. But in the actual scenario, login page itself won't be there. There will be sso environment and a link will be provided to this application. And if that link is clicked then it will take us to that application. And that application will be loaded inside the frame.
Summary: throbber keep looping if I include my application in a frame → throbber keeps looping if I include my application in a frame
I get Connection Refused on the URL.

Trying to load the URL, I now get: Network Timeout The operation timed out when attempting to contact sandesh.vsnl.com. Reporter, please provide a URL or attach a testcase that demonstrates the problem and then REOPEN the bug. Thanks. -> INVALID
