Clicking on links using touchscreen occasionally downloads page as HTML file

Reported by albertzh...@gmail.com, Jan 2 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.108 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Use laptop with touchscreen (in my case, a Dell Latitude 3340 with a touchscreen made by Elan Microelectronics (04f3:0256)
2. Tap on a link with your finger

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome navigates to the page as it would had I clicked on the link with a mouse.

What went wrong?
Occasionally and intermittently, Chrome will *download* the page as an html file (see bad.png for details). This doesn't happen always, or even sometimes, but every once in a while it will happen.

Did this work before? Yes Unknown

Chrome version: 63.0.3239.108  Channel: stable
OS Version: 4.14.9
Flash Version: 28.0.0.126

I do not know why or when it happens. It is seemingly random.

Is it possible you're tapping long enough to click "Save Link As"?

Can you include a network log ( https://dev.chromium.org/for-testers/providing-network-details ) when this happens? It may be specific to the server(s) you're using.
