Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Copy & Paste and Drag & Drop, defect, P5)

Description

[Robert Stopp (textrinum)]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009021910 Firefox/3.0.7 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

On documents with an explicit set base, drag and drop/ copy and paste shows strange behaviour. This is not always reproducable, i have an testcase that works with a trick to make it reproducable: http://www.renebel.de/dradndrop_testcase/testcase_drag_n_drop.html
Drag and Drop of elements with an "src" or "href" attribute makes the attributes switch between an absolute value (leading slash) an a relative value.
On designmode enabled documents this behaviour is most fatal. Images and links are broken.

Behaviour seems to be only reproducable if the containing document and the document with the set base having the same base. Testcase dosn't work if parent host: http://www.renebel.de and the iframe base is: http://renebel.de/

A bugzilla testcase isn't possible because there is no difference between src="logo.gif" and src="/logo.gif"

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the testcase at http://www.renebel.de/dradndrop_testcase/testcase_drag_n_drop.html with an gecko driven browser.
