We have a web form that performs a redirect, but it seems to keep looping the redirect page causing multiple new windows to open.

On our website there is a hidden form passing some credentials and doing a redirect to another page. This seems to work fine in IE, Chrome, and Safari, however in Firefox, the redirect page seems to keep looping or refreshing causing multiple new windows to open until you close the redirect tab.

What's the URL?

Are there cookies involved with the redirect (e.g. a request to create new cookies)?

Also, could you test in Firefox 45 in case this was an older bug that got fixed?

I just tested in Firefox 45 and it still happens. I don't believe we are using cookies in the redirect, I am waiting to hear back from our developers on that.

Currently the site we are testing on is behind a company login so I can't really post a URL to access the site.
