Summary: When hitting 302 pages the originating page is saved to
history rather than the redirected page
Product: WebKit
Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
Platform: Macintosh
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Normal
Priority: P2
Component: Page Loading
AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
ReportedBy: dave.verwer at shinydevelopment.com
Steps to reproduce.
1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org
2. Click on the Random Article link on the left hand side bar
3. Click it again...
4. and again...
5. click Back in Safari
The user expectation would be that the history would go back through the pages
that have been viewed, however the history obviously only contains the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random location which is even seen as a
duplicate and rather than seeing 3 different random pages (which would also be
unexpected behaviour) the history goes back to the original page
http://en.wikipedia.org.
Firefox handles this "correctly" where correctly means as an average user would
expect. Opera also handles this issue correctly.
