Video of the bug

in 58231 and a few builds preceeding back to a few days ago. dont remember when. When you click a link in Google Voice it takes you to About:Blank.

If anyone wants to give me instruction on how to create a test case so that people without a google voic account can test the bug please feel free to reply with instructios.

it mainly happens with clicking "More" when there is more in a text message series.

tested 57791 present in 57791 going back further...

57720 test... BUG IS PRESENT

taking an extreme dive back to april 1st at 56912 BUG PRESENT

it appears that google must have changed soemthing that breaks all of webkit... abandoning testing in webkit. 

testing in Minefield v3.0.3 - FUNCTIONAL.

This is a WEBKIT specific failure.

I can personally confirm the existence of this bug too. I don't know exactly when it happened, because I'm not at all consistent in my use of Google Voice's site, but it wasn't happening to me several months ago.

It does NOT happen in the current versions of Safari, nor Chrome on the Mac.

I'm using WebKit on 10.5.8 Leopard, not Snow Leopard, as was the original reporter. So, this is not a Snow Leopard-specific bug either.

Nor have I _noticed_ the same type of behavior on any site but Google Voice.

This bug appears to only occur when you click a link that "reveals" part of the page in their interface. The problem is determining whether that "reveal" is actually showing something that was there (but hidden) in the DOM, or actually replacing / appending to the content of a block. -- I *suspect* the latter, but without yet trying to trace the logic of their JS code I obviously can't state that with any confidence.

I suspect it's the same as bug 39249. Do you happen to have a semicolon in your password?
Comment 4 Alin S 2010-05-23 18:28:57 PDT
no semicolon!
Comment 5 Alexey Proskuryakov 2010-05-23 18:31:25 PDT
Thanks for the info. Does this still happen with the very latest nightly build, where bug 39249 is fixed?
Comment 6 Alexey Proskuryakov 2010-05-23 18:34:39 PDT
I don't have Google Voice to test, but in the video, I see that the link seems to be "javascript://". Definitely looks like bug 39249!
