Subject: Mechanize doesn't strip quotes from url in meta refresh
Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2007 18:53:38 +0930
To: bug-WWW-Mechanize [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Krieg, Jeremy" <Jeremy.Krieg [...] youramigo.com>
I ran into a page which had a meta refresh tag looking something like as follows: <meta content="0; url='http://www.mysite.com/'" http-equiv="refresh"> Mechanize successfully parsed out the URL, however it did not strip the single quotes from it. So when I went to follow the link, I ended up at: http://www.origsite.com/'http://www.mysite.com' Firefox handles this correctly. It would be nice if Mechanize stripped the quotes out too. The version of Mechanize that I am reporting against is 1.18.
