omnibox shows about:blank for a long time after new tab opened via target=_blank |
||||||||
Issue descriptionI've noticed on my Android and OSX device that clicking a link (e.g. an article on FB) that opens a tab results in a tab opening that says about:blank in the omnibox for a number of seconds before the URL appears. This looks very broken and often on Android I've hit back assuming it's some kind of a bug, but now think it's just a delay. Looks to me like there's been some regression here, but this begs the question - is there any way we can get the actual URL to show immediately? Why does it sit on about:blank for a while? (noticed on OSX running 57.0.2987.133)

We started showing the pending URL for cases like this quite a while ago in issue 9682 . We have to revert to showing about:blank if the opener window tries to access the new window via script code, since at that point a URL spoof becomes possible (e.g., put fake content under the pending URL). I don't know if that's what Maps is doing in the video in comment 1, but it's possible. Oddly, I'm able to repro it in 58.0.3029.68 but not in 60.0.3082.0. That suggests something recent may have changed to fix it, so maybe it was for a different reason. owencm@, can you repro in 60.0.3082.0 or newer?

Just tried and haven't been able to repro. Will re-open if I see this again. Thanks! |
