Issue 2238: Add search engine dialog doesn't allow "{" (open curly brace);
can interfere with javascript
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2238
New issue report by dgingrich:
Product Version : 0.2.149.29 (build 1798)
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Firefox 3: OK
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Right click Omnibox -> Edit search engines... -> Add
2. set Name to 'test'; Keyword: blank;
3. set URL to 'javascript:alert("test");' (Note "OK" button is active)
4. set URL to 'javascript:alert("test");{};' (Note "OK" button is inactive)
What is the expected result?
Should be able to create new search engine that is a "javascript:" URL
containing a "{"
What happens instead?
Cannot save new search engine (can't click "OK")
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
This happens with any "{" character in the Add Search Engine dialog,
e.g. "http://google.com/{";
also fails.
This only happens in the Add Search Engine
dialog. 'javascript:alert("test");{};' works in a
bookmark or when typed into the Omnibox. (Suspect it conflicts with the
use of "{google:baseURL}"
strings in Search Engines?)
Seems to work for historically imported bookmarklets. It worked for my
existing reddit
bookmarklets (which had a keyword in Firefox) and failed when I tried to
upgrade. The URL is:
javascript:function b(){var u=encodeURIComponent(location.href);var
i=document.getElementById('redstat')||document.createElement('a');var
s=i.style;s.position='fixed';s.top='0';s.left='0';s.zIndex='10002';i.id='redstat';i.href='http://ww
w.reddit.com/submit?url='+u+'&title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title);var
q=i.firstChild||
document.createElement('img');q.src='http://www.reddit.com/d/like.png?
v='+Math.random()+'&uh=aiaa6louc107573d3fa96181c3966f33b56df3d1647fb32157&u='+u;i.appendChild(q);do
cument.body.appendChild(i)};b()
There are other strange combinations that can't be saved:
ok: http://1
fail: http://1~
ok: http://1~@
ok http://1/~
fail: http://1%
ok: http://1%@
ok: http://1/%
