Description c_O 2007-07-03 13:50:06 UTC

When you open a link page not exist on freebsd website,it will bring you to a "Document not found page".

in this page the "You are coming from"(when you want to go back) url will not bring you back.

Fix: 

in www/en/cgi/missing_handler.cgi line 78,some characters in $http_referer_url has been replaced.

replace <a href="$http_referer_url">$http_referer</a>. to  <a href="$http_referer">$http_referer</a>. in line 97 will fix this problem.
How-To-Repeat: 1) open http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.0R/approvals.html,

2) click "FreeBSD 7.0 developer todo list"(the page which is not exist right now).

3)click "You are coming from    http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.0R/approvals.html" in Document not found page it will bring you to http://www%2efreebsd%2eorg/releases/7.0R/approvals%2ehtml (the page will not be displayed)

Hi there, 

Can you please have a look at this? You wrote the missing_handler 
script and I dont really understand why this happends (the escape 
functions that are being used dont encode the dot character as far 
as I can see; but in the results that happends. in addittion as the 
submitter mentions; this only happends when we call the escape2 
routine). 

Thanks in advance!

Comment 3 c_O 2007-07-08 02:48:23 UTC

i think escape2 doesn't effect this.
78: =24http_referer_url =3D=7E =
s/(=5B=5Ea-zA-Z0-9;=5C/?:&=3D=5D)/sprintf(=22%%%02x=22,ord(=241))/eg;

i think in this line something have been replaced

just replace =24http_referer_url with =24http_referer in line 97 should =
fix this

XD
