History item and document.location change.

Summary History item and document.location change.
Jędrzej Nowacki
Reported 2010-10-22 00:41:13 PDT
Behavior of back / forward history changed between QtWebkit 2.0 and the trunk. <html> <head> <script> document.location = "another url"; </script> </head> <body></body> </html> I believe that page above should not create a history item in the B/F history, which is the current behavior. From user point of view there is no difference between document.location and http redirection.

FWIW, this behavior already had tests (e.g. http/tests/history/redirect-js-location-before-load.html), which were updated when the change was made: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/65340.

True, I've missed that one. Do you think it is worth to revert my test? If yes I can do it.

Do you think it is worth to revert my test? If yes I can do it. No, I think it's fine to leave as is. However, if you're going to be making other history-related changes, you may want to add tests to that directory instead.
