           Summary: Safari 3 not caching Flash files
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 523.x+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh PowerPC
               URL: http://www.mcgillivrayconsultinggroup.com/index.php
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: kevin at rhubarbproductions.com


I've tested with the released Safari 3.0.4 and the r27375 webkit and whenever I
load a page with Flash elements that have been previously downloaded, they are
downloaded again. You can watch them re-download in the Activity window and
I've confirmed the download requests on the server logs.

If I run r27375 under Tiger with Safari 2 installed or run Safari 2 straight,
the problem does not exist. Nor does it exist when running Firefox. So, it
seems the problem is limited to either Safari 3 or Safari 3/Leopard. I don't
currently have a Tiger system with the Safari 3 beta installed to check and see
if it's Leopard specific.

Note on the test link: The site is in development and the index page is blocked
unless you use the full link with index.php at the end. The home page links
will go to the blocked page, so if you want to go back to the home page, you'll
need to use the link provided.

The home page has 2 flash files you can view the download on, but every page
has the flash header which best visually illustrates the issue. It will say
loading until the whole flash file is loaded and should immediately jump to a
picture if the flash file was being cached.
