Description Dimitur Kirov 2005-06-20 15:05:11 UTC
Distribution/Version: Slackware 10.1.0

When I try to view the source of a certain page, the displayed source is
different than the one of the page. This is due to the fact that the URL
of the page is requested once again. When I try to save the page the
source is unchanged. 
So is it possible to use the same procedure in "view source" as in "Save
as"
Comment 1 Dimitur Kirov 2005-06-20 15:06:08 UTC
Actual Results:
Source of a page, which is a result from submitting the form again.

Expected Results:
Source of the page, without submitting the form again.

I can't reproduce this bug with Epiphany 1.6.4. Does this happen on a special
page (please state which) or has this issue already been fixed?
Comment 3 Dimitur Kirov 2005-08-18 11:21:13 UTC
No, It is not fixed yet... "View source" continue to send the GET/POST request. 
In several hours I'll be able to send you URL with sample form.
Comment 4 Christian Persch 2005-08-27 09:59:37 UTC
Ping? Did you forget to post the testcase URL?
Comment 5 Bastien Nocera 2005-10-23 00:05:39 UTC
This simple PHP script which prints the date should be good enough to test this bug:
http://hadess.free.fr/test308403.php3

And the source:
<?php
print date ("l d F Y, H:i:s");
?>

Not confirming, as I have an older version of Ephy.

That testcase works here for me in epiphany 1.8.2. (Although there's a different
bug, the downloader shows no progress and stays around after the download has
finished...)
Comment 7 Christian Persch 2005-12-31 21:47:42 UTC
Maybe we need a testcase with POST ?
Comment 8 Bastien Nocera 2006-01-12 16:26:44 UTC
Test with POST at:
http://hadess.free.fr/test308403-post.php

The page is a FORM. If it works you get a page with "My test is rich!" as the text, and "No value" otherwise.
View as source seems to work as expected (ie. not downloading the page again).

-> 1.10

chpe and I are unable to reproduce this in ephy 1.9 it appears to work perfectly.

Bastien, are you still able to reproduce this ?
Comment 11 Bastien Nocera 2006-02-05 22:27:12 UTC
Crispin, read this again, I've never even tested this, I just provided the test cases. Dimitur is the one to ask...
Comment 12 Dimitur Kirov 2006-02-05 22:31:35 UTC
I confirm, it works.
Thanks!
Comment 13 Crispin Flowerday (not receiving bugmail) 2006-02-05 23:37:03 UTC
Bastien, sorry, I just skimmed the comments....

Dimitur, thanks for confirming that this now works.
