9 Nov 2007Firefox 3 smart folders
The third in an unbounded set of the things I love about Firefox 3. There's a new backend for history and bookmarks (called "Places") that makes things way faster and easier to do neat things with, like search and statistics. The Page Info dialog's number-of-visits value, for instance, is definitely pulled from there. Firefox 3 also comes pre-configured with some smart folders like these.

A web user is looking at page A. He clicks on a link for page B. That page has a META Refresh to page C. What is the value of HTTP_REFERER for that last request? What if the redirect was a Status 307? Or a location.replace() JavaScript call? What if he's using Opera? I've been doing some redirect referer tests this week and I have results for some the most common browser/OS combinations. I hope to expand them further.
