Comment #3 on issue 27660 by [email protected]: Handle HTTP AUTH for shared worker network requests http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=27660
OK, ran some tests here. The current behavior is: Popup the HTTP auth dialog on the tab that initially created the worker. If that tab is closed while the HTTP auth dialog is visible, then return a network error to the requesting app. If that tab was closed before the auth dialog was shown, then the network request never completes (it's as if the http auth dialog is onscreen waiting for user input, but since it's not visible, no user input ever occurs). For the upcoming release, I'm shooting for #2 - display the auth dialog on an arbitrary parent tab, generate a network error if it gets closed before the user responds. I'll update the code to implement #2. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
