Ok here I'm totally unsure if it's a bug but anyway I know the behavior differ
from IE and I think IE is right on this one.

I have a web page with the tag "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;
URL=http://www.yahoo.com">" this indicate to re-direct the browser to a new
location.  Inside the body of the same page I have a <body
onload="opensessionwin();"> but this call is never made.

I think that even thought the redirect is present, the body onload should be
called.  IE does that opera not tested.

Netscape 4.75 and Mozilla don't.
Could you attach a testcase and specify which build/os/platform you are using?
Go to http://estore.alltel.com and you'll see a blank white page.  Do a view
source, and you'll see an onLoad event handler attached to the body tag.  My
razor sharp reverse engineering skills tell me that the handler should redirect
the browser to Dispatch.jsp but that never happens.

Both of these instances could be releated to bug 3140 but I could be wrong.

I'm seeing the same problem on http://www.webads.nl , it should open a popup
with their privacy policy and then redirect to their website, instead, it just
redirects. 

I downloaded the HTML, changed the refresh to 1 second, and it works as expected.

This seems to have been fixed. I get prompted before being redirected. I also tried window.open() and that works too (if you allow popups). Basically, onload gets executed, followed by the redirect.
