7763 2006-03-14 05:10:18 -0800 Empty action URIs in Forms redirect towards site root and not same document 2009-03-20 01:47:50 -0700 1 1 1 Unclassified WebKit Forms 420+ Mac OS X 10.4 RESOLVED DUPLICATE 19884 P2 Normal --- 1 alakazam webkit-unassigned ap crisp ian oldest_to_newest 36222 0 alakazam 2006-03-14 05:10:18 -0800 It would seem, according to rfc3986, §4.4, that an empty URI action for a html form, such as <form action=""> is supposed to redirect towards the same document. Several other browsers act in this manner, but Webkit redirects towards the base location of the web site. This bug is present on http://frankiz.net/, however the site is not open for user registration. This bug poses a problem for websites that are visible from several locations with different access paths (proxypass for instance). 36295 1 ddkilzer 2006-03-14 08:57:28 -0800 This may or may not be related to Bug 6958. 36314 2 ap 2006-03-14 13:16:27 -0800 Test case: <http://nypop.com/~ap/webkit/submit-empty.html>. 62065 3 ap 2007-11-23 01:57:56 -0800 I have lost my reduction, and cannot re-create it, even with original 10.4.10 WebKit. 114418 4 crisp 2009-03-19 17:37:42 -0700 This still seems to be an issue since we received a simular bugreport for our site where we used action="" in combination with a <base href> pointing to the root of our site. According to HTML5 (and in line with other browser's behaviour) the empty string for the action attribute should be treated as a same-document reference ( http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#form-submission-algorithm ). Webkit apparently still fails to do so and uses the base url in such case. At least these bugs seem to be duplicates/related: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18166 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20378 Imo this bug should be upped as a (future) spec-violation and an interoperability issue. 114461 5 ap 2009-03-20 01:41:02 -0700 Can you still reproduce the problem with Safari 4 beta? 114462 6 ap 2009-03-20 01:47:50 -0700 This should have been fixed in bug 19884, please feel free to re-open if you can still reproduce this with Safari 4 beta. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 19884 ***
