529531 - Allow pageview or yet more detailed events for error pages to make it better testable

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, enhancement)

Description

[Honza Bambas (:mayhemer)]

At the moment it seems we don't have any tests for error page behavior. When I was writing a test for bug 529119 I have discovered that there are no events to watch for when an error page has to get loaded.

Personally (only my opinion) to have (XUL only ?) events that would inform of a type of an error, URL it failed for and such information would be sufficient.

onStateChange, if NS_FAILED(aStatus)?

I suspect it's not that simple to attach onStateChange callback.
