95188 - Incorrect URL provided by server (http:/ one slash)

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English Other, defect)

Description

[Jean-Francois Pirus]

When given a URL redirection of "http:/search/cad/" it is decoded as
"http://www.search.com/cad/", ie: the 1st part is taken as the domain name.

This might be correct, but both Netscape 4.x and IE decode it as
"http://localhost/search/cad/"
(ie: http://www.companies.govt.nz/search/cad/)

In version Mozilla 0.9.3 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.3)

See bug 32966 and bug 40670 for reasons why Mozilla will not accept these
