[webkit-dev] Passing null or undefined object as input url for XMLHttpRequest open()

[Pozdnyakov, Mikhail]

Hi all,

Currently for the following JS code:

req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("GET", null);

the implementation of XMLHttpRequest  will try to open URL:
"<base URL>/null". The similar behaviour is with an undefined object given
as input url (will try to open "<base URL>/undefined").

It does not seem to be correct behaviour and I would raise SYNTAX_ERR exception
in such cases, but I would like to hear other opinions on that before creating bug and uploading patch.

Thanks,
Mikhail
