https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26238 Bug ID: 26238 Summary: Add follow redirects back into WHATWG XHR specification Product: WebAppsWG Version: unspecified Hardware: PC OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: XHR Assignee: annevk@annevk.nl Reporter: jonathan@jooped.co.uk QA Contact: public-webapps-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, public-webapps@w3.org Add follow redirects back into WHATWG XHR specification: http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/ As mentioned on this post: http://discourse.specifiction.org/t/followredirects-in-xmlhttprequest/420/11?u=jonathank The intent is to put back in the followRedirects feature which was a security improvement from the client side to prevent calls following to unexpected URL changes. The expected result when the AJAX request returns a redirect code and followRedirects is disabled then it should return a network error. This should follow the same definition as the original specification: http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-XMLHttpRequest2-20100907/#the-followredirects-attribute However it shouldn't return a response if there is a redirect just a network error to the callbacks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
