Description Feng Qian 2008-10-29 11:10:09 PDT 
The test relies on the fact that file URL scan send XHR requests to any URL.
Chrome is going to have a tighter policy that file url can only send XHR requests to file URLs.

The test needs some changes to accommodate both Safari and Chrome's policies.

Instead of sending an XHR request to http://localhost (which is not existing), the test can send an XHR to the URL itself.

I presume the test now works in Firefox, too?
Comment 3 Feng Qian 2008-10-29 13:15:43 PDT 
The test is failing in FF for different reasons.

Before the change, the test failed because it throws an exception: NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE, ex.code is undefined.

After the change, the test failed because no exception is thrown.

patch for another test

Another test has a similar issue. It sends XHR request to 'about:blank'. It is allowed in Safari if the source URL is a file URL. Chrome does not allow it.

The test is testing something else, so make it send URL to itself.

You may need to make these patches easier to land (correct bug title, add ChangeLogs, possibly merge patches into one) - or to find a committer who is willing to do this for you.
