905120 - lufthansa.de sends desktop site to B2G

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Web Compatibility :: Site Reports, defect, P3)

Description

[Hallvord R. M. Steen [:hallvors]]

1) http://lufthansa.de should (probably) send FirefoxOS browsers to mobile.lufthansa.com

2) There is server-side browser sniffing on mobile.lufthansa.com that omits certain features (like autocomplete for departure/destination fields) when FirefoxOS is used (presumably classifying it as an "unknown" and less capable mobile browser in the backend logic). For example these scripts are removed, compared to what Firefox Android UA gets:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/searchfield.js;jsessionid=DB345BC5D669BF02AF1214C442E4E2D4.portal14b?l=en">
</script> 
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/airportlist.do;jsessionid=DB345BC5D669BF02AF1214C442E4E2D4.portal14b?full=1&amp;cities=1&amp;l=en">
</script>

This seems to be resolved. 

Tested on Firefox Android and Firefox OS, Opera mobile, Opera mini, they all receive the mobile Web site.

[Hallvord R. M. Steen [:hallvors]]

I get desktop site in FxOS

Comment 3

[Karl Dubost💡 :karlcow]

Yes regression. I guess they changed their framework.

[Hallvord R. M. Steen [:hallvors]]

The behaviour is pretty odd now.. First you do indeed get the desktop site, but if you try to click some menu or link you're all of a sudden taken to mobile.lufthansa.com instead. Pretty confusing!

Auto-complete is still missing from the "Book" section, but oddly enough it's present elsewhere like in the "Flight status" search screens, and works fine.

Comment 5

[Karl Dubost💡 :karlcow]

Confirmed on both remarks from Hallvord for Firefox OS.

# iOS Safari (iPod)
a redirection and then a fail to access any site. I suspect an infinite loop.

# Firefox Android
Redirection to mobile site.
Same issue with Book/Flight Status 

# UC Web, Opera, Chrome
Redirection to mobile
No issue with Book/Flight

We should open a separate bug for the autocompletion.


Let's see about the first page.

OH! I understood the issue with the iPod Safari. I guess Safari is really trying to make sense of the encoding even for a redirection.

So here you think all the same… than Firefox OS.
Well yes exactly. What's happening if I do 

→ http -b GET http://lufthansa.de/ "User-Agent: Mozila/5.0 (iPod; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420.1 (KHTML, like Geckto) Version/3.0 Mobile/3A101a Safari/419.3" 

http: error: LookupError: unknown encoding: IBM-850


→ http -b GET http://www.lufthansa.de/ "Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0"

http: error: LookupError: unknown encoding: IBM-850


woot?! Indeed. Safari old version is failing because the charset doesn't make sense.
Content-Type: text/html; charset=IBM-850

And btw it exists.

Comment 7

[Karl Dubost💡 :karlcow]

So tested and we receive now the Mobile Web site again.
I'm closing it And I'm also cloning for the Autocompletion.

Comment 8

[Hallvord R. M. Steen [:hallvors]]

If this was fixed at some point it's now regressed again :(

Comment 10

[Karl Dubost💡 :karlcow]

to note that Firefox Android is redirected to a mobile domain.
https://mobile.lufthansa.com/hpg/start.jsp?c=DE&l=de
but Firefox OS is getting a responsive Web site.

As such I think the issue is somehow solved.
