User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0) Gecko/20110322 Firefox/4.0 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0) Gecko/20110322 Firefox/4.0 Having security.warn_submit_insecure set to true should trigger a warning when a site tries to submit data by doing an ajax request. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set security.warn_submit_insecure to true 2. goes on a website using ajax to submit data (like the URL specified in this BR) Actual Results: triggering an ajax request won't warn you. Expected Results: warning dialog.
Tested with that url and I can reproduce the bug Build: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.2a1pre) Gecko/20110401 Firefox/4.2a1pre Build: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686 on x86_64; rv:2.2a1pre) Gecko/20110401 Firefox/4.2a1pre
To be fair, I only agree with your opinion in the case of insecure ajax requests.
