I've heard about this behavior a couple of times before, and even when I now try to reproduce this (even selecting bg2 as my preferred mirror) I can't. Next time a file is downloaded (with the .gz extension) could you "right click" and "copy link address" ? I'm wondering if this happens when being redirected internally from www to a local mirror but thats very difficult to reproduce.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-12-13 04:10:55] alexfbp at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I was navigating on the php.net page, and making searches about the language obviously. When i was making a "click" on a link page, usually it had taken me to the destination, but sometimes it started a download of the file "php.net/···/requested-page.php" As similar, when i was making a search, sometimes it showed me the search result. Other times it tryied to download the file "search.gz" In both cases (clicking/searching) i had to stop this downloads because when i tried to click another link, to open it; it had open "normally" if i had closed the related "download" (doesn't matter if the previous "download" was about a generated by a link -file.php download- or a search -search.gz download- ) Test script: --------------- I made a screencast with vlc... Unfortunately in this i can't made the capture of the download "search.gz", just "downloads" of the type "file.php" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPHlrgw-v14 Expected result: ---------------- A normally opened page of the php.net site Or. a normally result search of something that i was searching. Actual result: -------------- Appears that there hadn't happened nothing... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66281&edit=1
