Bug 243124 – New tab is stuck in page loading about:blank while onload is called to close tab

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: CONFIGURATION CHANGED
• Component: Page Loading

Hi Team,

Thanks for doing good job continuously.

While trying to dig through onload related test cases to determine some bug in Webkit, I came across another test case from Mozilla Bugzilla, where Safari just get stuck in page loading state:

Test Case URL - https://bug395634.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=280317

*** STEPS TO REPRODUCE ***

1. Load Test Case URL
2. Press "Click Me"

ACTUAL RESULT:

New tab will open with about:blank and it will be in loading state.

EXPECTED RESULT:

Chrome opens this test case and new tab with about:blank but Firefox does not open new tab and close abruptly on this testcase

Ideally, I think Chrome behavior is better rather than being stuck in page loading and showing progress bar that it is loading.

________

I hope this will get your attention and will be fixed.

Thanks - Keep going!!

I tested this on WebKit Trunk based on 259744@main and using run-safar --release and the new tab does not go to loading state. I consider this as fixed.

I am going to mark this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". Thanks!
