Description

seen in all versions of IE, particularly IE8 and IE9, discovered via an automated browser test:

Click Yes or No

Enter feedback and post it. After posting page shows "Your post can be viewed on this feedback page." where 'feedback page' is a link.

In IE, click the 'feedback page' one time. Nothing happens. Click 'feedback page' a second time and IE navigates to the feedback page.

Firefox and Chrome navigate to the feedback page with just one click of 'feedback page'

Note: fixing this would not only make the automated tests happy, but would be a subtle improvement in UX also.

• bzimport set Reference to bz42517.

on beta as of just now the 'feedback page' link does not function for any browser.

to demonstrate, leave feedback on any page, e.g. http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Aftpage and after posting feedback, attempt to use the 'feedback page' link

can confirm comment [2] with Firefox for german wikipedia (with lang=de)
manually copy&paste the link is ok

Matthias: Could you take a look at this?
