User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1 Build ID: 20120713134347 Steps to reproduce: - Pin a Page with a form (which points to the same page) to the newtab page - got a nice thumbnail of the page - visited the page - used the form - closed the page - opened a new tab Actual results: - the screenshot is now from the result page after submitting the form - clicking gets me of course to the non-result Version of the page, which looks as the first thumbnail looked like Expected results: - from pages which were requested with the POST method, no new thumbnail should be made - when opening the newtab-page, i should still see the GET-request thumbnail
prominent example: Use the submit form of a bugtracker in the newtab-page what should happen: - you see always the new-bug form in the thumbnail what actually happens: - you always see the page of the last bug you opened, even when the bug-page itself has another url, because after submitting the form you were redirected to the new page. - Clicking takes you to the form, not to the bug, of course
