           Summary: URL Redirect Loses Fragment
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: aspb at mapache.org


When following a redirect from a server (301 & 302, possibly others), any
fragment on the URL is dropped.  For example, if example.com/old redirects to
example.com/new, then attempting to load example.com/old#anchor will load
example.com/new, while other browsers (FireFox 3 and Chrome confirmed, possibly
others) will load example.com/new#anchor instead.  This happens with Safari 3.2
(Mac), Safari 4.0 Beta (Mac), and the latest nightly build of WebKit (Mac).

This seems to be the same as a KHTML bug reported in 2003 at
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57819 which is currently unreachable, but
cached at
http://74.125.95.132/search?q=cache:5VU5AvOFt64J:bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi%3Fid%3D57819+anchor+redirect+preserve&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us&client=safari
 The bug history there mentions an example URL of
http://test.confuego.org/57819#c13 which redirects to the bug description
itself (dropping #c13 under Safari).
