344551 - phishing protection reporting pages aren't very useful

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Mike Beltzner [:beltzner, not reading bugmail]]

The pages created by bug 344063 are less useful than the actual Google counterparts, and were created in a hurry just to meet the needs of that bug. Those pages should:

 - preserve the URL being reported as provided by Firefox
 - require no more than one or two clicks, and no more page loads to complete a reporting operation

This could be done with passthroughs to Google URLs, or by hosting the Google page in an iframe, or just with some JS madness.

Pages were actually created in bug 344128.

Taking. I've put something together to handle what comment #0 wants.

Comment 3

[Reed Loden [:reed]]

oh, except for the "no more page loads" part. I'll commit my work in a bit to explain.

Leaving this bug open for a better fix later on.

Ok, now that everything has synced properly, I would like some testing on this new code. Just go to Help --> Report Phishing Website and make sure that if you click the link to report it, it puts the URL correctly in the box.

I think this will hold us until a more permanent fix can be done.

We're going to use pages hosted at the provider for phishing reporting functionality per bug 346242.
