I think if you deselect them it would seem the browser won't respond to 307 responses but I have no way of testing it as I am currently in Vista due to a bug in the latest Ubuntu kernel so I can't set up Squid. |
Unfortunately, it doesn’t make any difference. I became aware of this when testing the various browsers, to see how they handle cookies on a redirection. Even where a modern browser ends the request line with
HTTP/1.0, it will accept and successfully process a
HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect in response. If you were to force Firefox to send
HTTP/1.0 and not act on the 307 status code, the correct action would be for it to display whatever page content is in the response. This would normally be something like:
Temporary Redirect
The document has moved here.
In the case of Webwise, there may be no content. This would result in an empty browser window. For HTTP/1.0, Webwise could just use a status code of 302 instead.
