From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.9-ac9 i686; Nav) BuildID: 2001091311 Mozilla 0.9.4 is doing something extreemly evil, it didn't do this with 0.9.3: When clicking on a fully specified link, many times it sends the request to the -current- http server from the address bar instead of the new host specified in the link. this is bad for several reasons: 1) you don't get the page you're looking for (usually a 404) 2) you send the url and any form field values to the wrong server 3) its impossible to surf when hyperlinks don't work Unfortunately it doesn't always happen. what i just did today to cause it to happen is: 1) launch mozilla 2) enter "9 0 and # on your telephone" in the google search box that i have as part of my own home page, press enter to submit 3) click on the first link in the returned results if i use Ctrl-N to open a new window and attempt to repeat this, it doesn't do it again. rest assured, i see this behavior a lot. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: see description Actual Results: see description Expected Results: see description i am using a http proxy (junkbuster on port 5865 of my gateway host) i wasn't even able to use mozilla on the bugzilla-helper.html page to start submitting this form, it sent my form values and request to att.com as i had looked at att.com's website in another window.

vrfy dupe of a bug resolved as invalid, workaround is provided: select http/1.0 - or get a better proxy (no proxy counts ;-)
