941414 - onLocationChange handler not firing

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[serge]

Attachment: Sample xulrunner application

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/29.0.1547.62 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I create several browser elements, and call loadURIWithFlags on them. I add a progress listener to handle onLocationChange().

Attached is minimal xulrunner 25.0 app that shows the breaking behavior.

Actual results:

I expect the onLocationChange handler to be called at least once per created browser element.


Expected results:

For the third url in the example app, the location change handler does not fire. Interestingly, if lines 50 and 51 are wrapped in a setTimeout(..., 5000), the app works as expected.
