Bug 16701 – REGRESSION(r27865): URL-encoded space (%20) in livejournal url causes page load error

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Page Loading

[Cameo Wood]

Steps to reproduce:
1. Log into any livejournal account, make sure you are logged in (u:webkittest p:test1234)
2. Open http://cameo.livejournal.com/friends/test%20page
3. You will see:
"Safari can’t open the page.
Safari can’t open the page “http://cameo.livejournal.com/friends/test%20page”. The error was: “unknown error” (CFURLErrorDomain:302) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Help menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message."
4. If you hit "reload" or 'F5' the page will also properly load.

Notes:  This page fails to open when you open a new tab or new window even if the page is properly loaded in safari in another tab or page.  
This only occurs when you are logged in.

I am running the latest nightly and 3.0.5

Works okay with WebKit nightly r29079 with Safari 3.0.4 (5523.10.6) on Mac OS X Server 10.5.1 (9B18).

Also works fine with a local debug build of WebKit r29078 with Safari 3.0.4 (523.12.2) on Mac OS X 10.4.11 (8S165).

Confirmed with WebKit nightly r28899 with Safari 3.0.4 (523.15) on Windows XP SP2.  Works fine with Safari 3.0.4 (523.15) with released WebKit, so this appears to be a WebKit regression.
