#1813 about://blank is not supported, only about:blank is supported now.

[Rural Hunter]

This is the code:
WebClient client=new WebClient();
client.getOptions().setThrowExceptionOnFailingStatusCode(false);
client.getOptions().setThrowExceptionOnScriptError(false);
client.getPage("http://toutiao.com/a6321930090477568257");
The url http://toutiao.com/a6321930090477568257 can be opened with any browser but failed in htmlunit with error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: about://blank is not supported, only about:blank is supported now.
