Re: source forge: search --and W3 4.0.44 vs 4.0.46

tvr> The search form on sourceforge (uses post and is php powered) tvr> ticlkles an interestingly weird bug in w3 4.0.46 (works fine tvr> with 4.0.44) --if you do a submit using 4.0.46, you get back an tvr> error page saying "this url redirected to itself" --and the url tvr> of the returned error page has the parameters sent as the http tvr> post stuck at the end like get parameters. Does anyone know tvr> where this bug crept in from? with w3-4.0pre.46 I can't even load their main page; w3 gives up and the *URL-<x>* buffer contains the redirection message you quote. I think this is due to a buggy mod_php in the Apache they are using; it can't handle Host: headers which include a port number (and unlike Netscape, w3 always includes one, even when it's the default port). (defadvice url-create-mime-request (after url-buggy-http1.1 activate) "Workaround for certain HTTP daemons which can't cope with a port number in the Host: header." (save-match-data (when (string-match "\\(Host: [^:]+\\):80\\>" ad-return-value) (setq ad-return-value (replace-match "\\1" t nil ad-return-value))))) -- Eric Marsden <URL:http://www.laas.fr/~emarsden>
