I ran into some strange behavior in trying to search on the Adobe
website with OmniWeb 3.0.2. http://search.adobe.com If I have
Javascript on and try to do a search I get the search results page
which is immediately refreshed by
http://www.adobe.com/error/viewing.html. I thought this to be a
javascript bug so I turned off javascript and tried to search again,
only to get the standard 404 Not Found.
It looks like they intended to set up their webpage so if you don't
have javascript you should get the
http://www.adobe.com/error/viewing.html page, but you get 404 Not
Found. For some reason if JavaScript is on OmniWeb seems to read
the Javascript as well as
<NOSCRIPT><META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh"
CONTENT="0;URL=/error/viewing.html"></NOSCRIPT>.
I am not sure I totally understand what is going on. If this is a
bug in OmniWeb, Adobe's Page or both. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Albert
