78086 - View Source does not work correctly after POST

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 55583

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Chris Sutton]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.14-5.0.14 i686; en-US; rv:0.8.1+)
Gecko/20010426
BuildID:    2001042621

Step 1.  Fill in a form that has a POST method.  Step 2.  Submit the form and
then do a view source on the page you get back.  It seems that in order to view
source Mozilla resubmits the request, but without any of the form paramters, so
the resulting view source is not the same information you are seeing after
submitting the form.

A GET seems to work fine as all the parameters are contained in the URL.

Try http://www.chriskate.net/formtest.pl for an example.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://www.chriskate.net/formtest.pl
2.Enter something in the form, and hit submit
3.The page that comes back says what you entered, but if you view source on this
page, it shows you the original form

Actual Results:  It did not show the actual correct page source

Expected Results:  Shown the same source that you see in the browser.
