repro case
Browsers tested:
Chrome Canary 25.0.1317.0 - FAIL
Webkit Nightly 6.0.2 (7536.26.17, 537+) - FAIL
Firefox 16.0.2 - PASS
Repro steps:
1) Run the attached test.html with the web inspector open.
2) Click the Network tab and click icon-gold.png.
Expected:
The HTTP REFERER header is sent when requesting the image.
Actual:
Notice that the HTTP REFERER header isn't sent when requesting the image. This is because the iframe doesn't have a 'src' attribute. However, the iframe is created and written into by the parent page, so it should send the parent page's REFERER.
This breaks sites that need to use a local iframe to sandbox css styles, and that iframe also loads external content that relies on HTTP REFERER.
