Bug 116655 – WebFrameProxy::didFailLoad clears frame title for no apparent reason

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

[Santosh Mahto]

void WebFrameProxy::didFailLoad()
{
........
.....
 m_title = String();   // causing title to empty even though Page(and title) is displayed 
}
When Page loading is stopped before load is finished. we should not set the title to empty string
We still have the content to display on screen(we have full Frame & dom tree present).
So if page is stopped the UI process always get the empty title even though the page related to 
that title exists.

One thing that's very helpful to do in cases like this is svn blame, which may explain rationale behind the code.

Here, it points to <http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/74282>. As you can see, the behavior was chosen conscientiously, and even mentioned in ChangeLog .

But I still agree that the behavior is wrong.

Please update the title in ChangeLog to match Bugzilla.

We use brackets in title for a very specific purpose (marking patches that are of limited interest only).
