           Summary: https does not reload CSS and Javascript files after a
                    Back
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: https://core.federated.com/~jim/webkitbug/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jim at federated.com


If you return to an SSL accessed page with Javascript or CSS files linked using
'back', then pressing 'Reload' or 'Shift+Reload' will only get the main file,
not the Javascript or CSS files. The problem does not present if using HTTP to
access the same pages and is not present in the webkit version shipped with
10.4.10.

Needless to say this will drive you mad when editing CSS and Javascript files
over SSL.

Setting expire times in the past or cache control to no cache on the CSS and
Javascript files does not effect the problem.

The problem presents from at least Apache 2.2 and lighttpd. I have not tested
other servers.

You can see the problem at https://core.federated.com/~jim/webkitbug/ and see
it not be a problem at http://core.federated.com/~jim/webkitbug/ There are
navigation instructions on those pages, but it is simply going forward a page,
back, refreshing, and comparing the two times at the top of the file, one of
which is set when the page is fetched, and the other when the associated
javascript file is fetched.

The three files in that directory can be retrieved from
http://core.federated.com/~jim/webkitbug/webkitbug.tar.gz
