279349 - Favicon not shown in location bar when fetched from HTTPS URL

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Uri Bernstein]

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050121
Firefox/1.0+

When the URL for the favicon is an HTTPS URL, the favicon is ignored, and the
generic globe icon is shown instead.

This is a recent regression, it works in Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X
Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050113 Firefox/1.0+

Testcase, using https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/mozilla-16.png. Note that this
shows the problem even when saved as a local file. The important factor appears
to be the URL of the favicon, not of the document.

Bah - seems to be a profile-related thing (I was using a different profile with
the older build). Marking INVALID for now, unless I figure out exactly what's
going on.

Sorry for the spam.
