245330 - Automatic "I'm feeling lucky" search is too active

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 263213

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Shish]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040525 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040525 Firefox/0.8

I'm running nagios on a server named "aru" - nagios has 2 frames; a control one
on the left and information on the right. The frame on the right is reloaded
every 90 seconds. Every now and then, I'd find that the server had gone down,
and the right frame was showing www.rugby.com.au. After lots of thinking
"WTF?!?", I found that when firefox can't find a host, it does an "I'm feeling
lucky" search - in this case it failed to find the server "aru", and ended up in
the "Australian Rugby Union" home page.

As such, I think that the correct behaviour is to go through "I'm feeling lucky"
/only/ when the word is typed into the location bar. A half hour of page source
viewing and tcp dumping shows that the page in nagios is being reloaded via a 
"Refresh: 90\r\n" in the HTTP headers.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Go to a server
2) find a page that's refreshed via HTTP's "Refresh" header
3) Take the server down

Actual Results:  
When firefox refreshes the page, it can't find the server, so it googles for it
and shows the first result

Expected Results:  
The "server not found" error should come up

Sounds like bug 184433, which was fixed after you filed this bug, or bug 184814,
which I can't reproduce.

I'm confused. How was bug 184433 fixed after this bug was filed? There's been no
real activity on that since January.

Shish are you still able to reproduce this in Firefox version 1.0.4 or above
(preferably a trunk nightly build)?
