Description Luke Skibinski 2012-12-21 09:40:00 PST

Created attachment 3897 [details]
changes a 'refresh' redirection to a 'location' redirection

Internet Explorer has a 'high security' setting that causes the current redirection method to fail.

The current redirection method is to send the "refresh: 0" header.

It fails variously. IE 9 returns a blank white page, IE 6 and 8 return the user to the page they came from. IE 7 not tested.

This can be replicated by:

* set IE security settings to 'high' (default is medium)
* visit the login page: http://ojs.example.org/login
* enter correct login credentials
* click 'Login'

A patch has been attached.
