Bug 14069 – [S60]: Plug-in request for execution of JavaScript through NpnGetUrl API not working

• Status: CLOSED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Plug-ins

[Mahesh Kulkarni]

A scriptable plug-in can request for a page to load through NPN_GetURL . It can also execute javascript using same API by sending javascript: in the url followed by script.
This API doesnt seems to be responding for simple javascript alert. 


- Use case: 
http://waplabdc.nokia-boston.com/browser/users/MaheshKK/geturl.html

- Steps to reproduce: 
1) Open the link: http://waplabdc.nokia-boston.com/browser/users/MaheshKK/geturl.html
2) Select flash
2) Click on "Enter" button

- Actual outcome:
Nothing happens after clicking on Enter. 

- Expected outcome:
It should display a alert message "Hello"

Resolve URL bug

_REASON:
When "javascript:" is come in requested URL, browser tries to resolve that URL with base URL. This process encodes special characters (in this case double quotes). Then URL is sent to javascript execution. Javascript engine fails to understand the content as URL has encoded script. 

_SOLUTION:
When "javascript:" is present in the URL, do not resolve URL. Even if javascript makes a requests for a URL then that will be taken care by script engine. 

_MODULE_EFFECTED: 
webKit/plugin plugin_loader

_TSW ERR_ID: MKUI-73GEH4
