I can reproduce this bug on both Warpzilla and mozilla-win32. When we click download icon on Software choice page, the server requires our browser to use POST method. NC4.61 uses POST correctly but Mozilla seems to use GET method instead. I confirm this behavior by iptrace. This unexpected GET losts information that should be handed to server with POST. Software choice lead us to error page as the result. NC4.61: step1. browser -> server : POST without user ID nor password step2. server -> browser : 401 Authentication failed step3. browser -> user : require to input user ID and password step4. browser -> server : POST with user ID and password step5. server -> browser : 200 OK Mozilla: step1. browser -> server : POST without user ID nor password step2. server -> browser : 401 Authentication failed step3. browser -> user : require to input user ID and password ! step4. browser -> server : *GET* with user ID and password step5. server -> browser : 200 OK - but information lacks Could somebody post this bug to Bugzilla? It's hard to me to explain more in English...:-( -- Kunihiko "Achain" Aizawa : Team "FULL THRUST" Japan =3 =3 =3 ICQ:4533002 http://www.netlaputa.ne.jp/~achain/index_e.html
