Looking into what’s happening with youtube, it seems that when clicking on a video the page loads and all we get is a LoadCommitted event, never a LoadSucceeded, which explains why the browser doesn’t store the URL in the history database.
Adding an oxide task to get clarification from Chris: is it expected that some pages trigger only a LoadCommitted event (I’m not seeing any other events)? If so, do you reckon we should store URLs in the history db upon load committed, rather than load succeeded? ** Changed in: webbrowser-app Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: webbrowser-app Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Also affects: oxide Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu WebApps bug tracking, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455858 Title: History AWOL with YouTube "get more videos" button. Status in Oxide Webview: New Status in Web Browser App: Confirmed Bug description: Nexus 7 2013, Ubuntu Touch r2, dev channel. There appears to be a browser bug, possibly connected to the YouTube "get more videos" button at the bottom of a page. When the button is pressed, no history is remembered and the video plays without a chance to choose whether HQ or not.
