Details

User-Agent: Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030630 I don't know if this qualifies as a bug, but I tried to open a .php file on a new php server I had installed. It was wrongly installed, so Mozilla said it couldn't handle .php file types. When it asked for the program path that would open .php files I wrote '/usr/bin/mozilla' and it started to open many many files in /home/---/.tmp. The file was named index.php and the files Mozilla tried to open where index-1.php, index-1-1.php, index-1-1-1.php, index-1-1-1-1.php, etc. I eventually 'kill -TERM'inated the browser and started over. The error repeats itself! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open http://127.0.0.1/~johndoe/index.php 2. [With no PHP server installed] When Mozilla asks for the application to open the .php file, use '/usr/bin/mozilla' as the application. Actual Results: Mozilla kept trying to open index.php index-1.php index-1-1.php, etc., in the $HOME/.tmp directory. Expected Results: Open the php file. I don't seem to have the php server correctly installed, but I don't think that what happens should happen.
