[tclwebtest] RE: Can't use do_request with a dotted decimal URL

[Molek, G. <GM...@ze...>]

I just recently downloaded tclwebtest, the ChangeLog file shows

-- Release 0.3 2003-05-26 ---

My test case is very simple (based on one of the self-test files
that came with the package):

set URL1 "http://www.google.com"
set URL2 "http://216.239.39.99"

do_request $URL1

link reset_current
while {![catch {link find -next}]} {
   debug "found a link: [link get_text] <[link get_url]>"
}

do_request $URL2

link reset_current
while {![catch {link find -next}]} {
   debug "found a link: [link get_text] <[link get_url]>"
}

If I run it as above, both do_requests work.  If swap URL1 and URL2,
e.g.,

set URL2 "http://www.google.com"
set URL1 "http://216.239.39.99"

do_request $URL1

link reset_current
while {![catch {link find -next}]} {
   debug "found a link: [link get_text] <[link get_url]>"
}

do_request $URL2

link reset_current
while {![catch {link find -next}]} {
   debug "found a link: [link get_text] <[link get_url]>"
}

So that I attempt the dotted decimal URL request first (or only
try the dotted decimal URL request), it doesn't work.

Weird,
