Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 74484
HTTP POST form submission not working
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:29 UTC
When a form has a http-post submit action, the form data is not sent to the action url but opened as a new document. Looking at the code reveals, that the submission impl makes a dispatch call to the actionURL with the form data in an argument called PostData. The frameworks handles this by opening the data in PostData as a new document. I don't know whether this must be fixed in the framework or in the form layer.
putting into 2.x pool
As discussed, putting back to 2.3 target, might become 2.2.1
Created attachment 43439 [details] document to reproduce the bug case
The attached allows to reproduce the bug case: Enter "ToDo" in the search box, and press the search button. Expected result: The OOo-Wiki-search page is opened in a new OOo document window, with the search text "ToDo". Actual result: A cryptic text is opened in a new OOo document window (actually the post parameters).
submitted follow-up issue 74980, since re-directed POSTs still do not work, which is a different problem. Fixed this issue here in CWS dba23a: comphelper/inc/comphelper/mediadescriptor.hxx 1.10.78.1 comphelper/source/misc/mediadescriptor.cxx 1.14.46.1
submitted another follow-up issue: issue 75191.

changing target to 2.2.1
fs->ja,mba: I submitted two follow-up issues after fixing this one here, issue 74980 and issue 75191. They also contribute to the "HTTP POST" experience (one talks about POSTs not working in case of redirects, which might be pretty common, and the other about *two* POSTs issued all the time, while one would be sufficient). Please check whether those issues also deserve the new target.
copied fix to CWS dba221a: comphelper/inc/comphelper/mediadescriptor.hxx 1.10.84.1 comphelper7source/misc/mediadescriptor.cxx 1.14.52.1
adding mh to cc list. JA->MH: Do you have any concerns regarding a 2.2.1 target for http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=74980 and http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=75191 ?
I think that issue 74980 can wait for 2.3, AFAIK this never worked correctly and obviously this doesn't create a big problem for our users. I'm unsure about 75191 but also don't think that this bug is so ugly that it can't wait for 2.3.
