Public bug reported:
# Platform
Firefox Developer Edition v 39.0a2 on Ubuntu Gnome 14.10 x86_64
GNU/Linux
# Steps to reproduce
1. Go to a web page that contains relative links to a fragment, eg.
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragment_identifier
* https://github.com/request/request (in the *Table of contents*
section)
2. Enter the Reader View (click on a book icon on the right side of the
address bar)
3. Click any of the fragment links
eg. on Wikipedia page any of the reference links, like `[1]` which
points to `#cite_note-1`
on Request's GitHub page it would be `usage examples` which points
to `#examples`
# Expected behavior
In case of Wikipedia page:
* The URL changes to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragment_identifier#cite_note-1
* Viewport jumps to the fragment with given identifier
* Browser makes no new request (no page refresh)
* The Reader View stays on (doesn't switch to normal view)
# What happens instead
* The URL changes to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/#cite_note-1 (**last
part of path is missing**, in this example it would be
`Fragment_identifier`)
* The browser makes a request and displays the result
* The browser exits the Reader View and switches to normal view
Last two steps are actually expected given the path in the URL is
changed.
# Notes
When the mouse is hovered above the link in reader mode the URL
displayed on the bottom of the browser window is already corrupted.
If fragment identifier is manually added to the URL (typed into address
bar) in Reader View, the browser refreshes the page and exits the Reader
View.
Entering Reader View when a fragment identifier is already in the URL
doesn't respect it. The viewport goes to the top of the page. The URL in
the bar is not changed (the identifier is still there).
In normal view no new request is made when fragment identifier changes.
I believe in Reader View it should work the same way.
Also there is a new request whenever one enters or exits the Reader
View, but I don't believe it's related to this issue.
