Description Ondřej Žižka 2010-07-22 20:50:17 UTC
Good web applications, after a POST form is submitted, process the request and redirect the user to another permanent URL via GET.

Bugzilla sends you to an URL like post_bug.cgi, which is useless.
This is one of the MOST ANNOYING bugs of bugzilla.

Please could you implement the redirection?

Thanks.

I hoped that 3.6 will have it - but I am disappointed again.

Comment 2 David Lawrence 2010-08-09 17:35:30 UTC
This should be addressed upstream as this is not a trivial change and we work better with the upstream to solve general problems such as this.

Hi David,

JBoss products will soon migrate to bugzilla. It's quite important to make it at least usable if not good.

Let's not close this, rather let it open and let's use it to track our upstream activity on this serious bug. I will file an issue in BZ's BZ, and let's see if it gains some attention.

I have filled the upstream bug, you can find it at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/post_bug.cgi

I'm not sure if the last comment was meant as a joke or not. Closing, as we won't be implementing it as an extension on our code base.

Just a note that this is fixed upstream (on modern browsers) in Bugzilla 4.1 / 4.2
