Description Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2006-05-31 15:07:39 UTC
If a subpage contains "#REDIRECT [[../]]", it will not display as a redirect, it
will display as a numbered list with one element, a link to the parent page (so
the .. does get correctly identified as a link to the parent page).  If it
contains "#REDIRECT [[../foo]]", the same applies.  Neither of these redirect
correctly, as the URL shows.

"#REDIRECT [[/subpage]]" works normally.
Comment 1 Phil Harnish 2006-05-31 19:32:57 UTC
secureAndSplit() returns false because of line 1519 of Title.php (
http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Title.php ):

if ( strpos( $r, '.' ) !== false &&
   ( $r === '.' || $r === '..' ||
     strpos( $r, './' ) === 0  ||
     strpos( $r, '../' ) === 0 ||
     strpos( $r, '/./' ) !== false ||
     strpos( $r, '/../' ) !== false ) )
{
return false;
}

It might be possible to add '../' to $wgTitleCache in anticipation.

Confirmed still an issue - are Phil's comments still valid?
