windowName transport is not working on HTTPS to HTTP configuration using FireFox

[jamoville]

dojox.io.windowName.send fails to POST data when the local host is https and the remote host is http in Firefox. I believe this is happening because FireFox? is displaying a warning message to the user about sending unencrypted data from an encrypted site. FireFox? uses the about:blank location while waiting for the user’s input to this warning message. The windowName transport then tries to navigate back to the local domain and grab the data out of about:blanks’s window name, which doesn’t exist . I think this is a simple fix. It looks like this case is already handled for every browser except FF

Take a look at the following code from windowName’s onload function:

if(!dojo.isMoz && frame.contentWindow.location =='about:blank'){

opera and safari will do an onload for about:blank first, we can ignore this first onload

return;

}

I think all that needs to be done here is to remove the isMoz condition.

if(frame.contentWindow.location =='about:blank'){

opera and safari will do an onload for about:blank first, we can ignore this first onload

return;

}

OS - Windows Browser version - Firefox 3.5 Dojo Build - 1.2.3
