Details
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 Build Identifier: When a web page contains an img tag like this <img src="" alt="" /> Firefox 3.0.11 does an extra request to the originating page. This crashes AJAX web applications which use sessions/cookies for tracking some information which is automatically changed by this kind of request, thus making the tracking to be impossible. I could reproduce it with Firefox 3.0.11 under the following platforms and architectures: - Windows Vista and Windows XP (both 32-bit) - Ubuntu 9.04 (i386), Ubuntu 8.04.3 (both i386 and amd64) - Mac OS X Leopard (32-bit) Firefox 3.5 isn't affected by this kind of behavior. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a simple plain HTML page and make it accessible via a web server 2. place within that page a simple img tag with src="" 3. check the requests with the Firebug extension. It would show a couple of requests, both to the same page. Actual Results: A couple of HTTP requests to the same page when requesting this type of pages. Expected Results: A single request to that certain page. If the src="" attribute is empty, then Firefox should do nothing.
