51510 - Random characters (hex codes?) rendered in page

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Karl Johan Kleist]

Build ID: 2000090508 / RH 6.2

RECIPE:

1. Visit "http://www.microwarehouse.se/"

2. In the field labelled "Sök produkt:", enter "cinema"

3. Be amazed by the amount of junk, like " 144 26f 34 21b", or "12 0", that
   is rendered all over the page.

   The page is rendered fine by NS 4.72, IE5 (win) and Opera 4.02 (win).

   (The HTTP header at the top is bug 43729, I assume. )

Reporter agin. Sorry, no CSS here I think. The content of
<style type="text/css"> was commented away.

Confirmed on the Mac. I'm going to attach a log of the dialog with the server. 
Note that the hex characters *are* in the stream. For instance, look at lines 
243/245: they contain the strings "2e" and "d3". Same thing in lines 310 and 331 
with the strings "144" and "26f". Someone told me that this is normal with what 
is called HTTP chunks. I don't know anything about that. Reassigned to Networking 
like bug 43729.
