Firefox seems to send the "sign-in" POST request without a Content-Length
header for the "sign-In" link on "elance.com". At least I assume that is the
reason I couldn't login via Squid (411 ERROR saying length is required).
IE works, which may be down to how they generate the requests on different
browsers, as it sends a "Content-Length: 0" header in these requests.
Is there a config that makes this work with Squid? (Currently using Debian
Etch squid package 2.6.5-6).
Have they done a known gotcha in their Ajax?
Reproduce:
Visit http://www.elance.com/
Click on "sign-In"
No sign-in dialogue appears.
When:
Always with Firefox via Squid.
Never with IE.
Never with Firefox without Squid.
Firefox 2.0.0.11 or Iceweasel 2.0.0.10 same, client Windows or Debian makes no
difference.
Error:
1200651675.192 1 212.24.80.83 TCP_DENIED/411 2658 POST
http://www.elance.com/php/reg/main/signInAHR.php? - NONE/- text/html
Tried "request_entities" option in the squid.conf no effect.
Firebug happily shows a nice informative bit under "XHR" queries, including
the full text of the Squid error - saying "knock it off with the malformed
requests" (I paraphrase in local idiom to make it challenging for those that
aren't native English speakers).
