A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
This is a ticket to re-open JDK-8157686. (It is unfortunate that even as the bug reporter, I cannot comment on the existing ticket and the ONLY way to communicate to JDK developers is by opening a new ticket).

Guru Hb commented here: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8157686?focusedCommentId=13946464&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13946464

He said "For the given URL "https://ghosttunes.com" and "http://thesimplefact.org/" Main page url is not changed (Re-directed or moved) to different location. Same behavior exhibits in Firefox and Chrome."

This is not true from my testing. I've tested in both Firefox and Chrome and clicking on the links do indeed change the main page URL.

For example, in Chrome or Firefox, go to:
1) Go to: https://ghosttunes.com
2) Click on "View All" (next to "New Releases")
3) Observe the URL changes to https://ghosttunes.com/new/albums

The URL location change is not detected in JavaFX's WebView.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
For example, in Chrome or Firefox, go to:
1) Go to: https://ghosttunes.com
2) Click on "View All" (next to "New Releases")
3) Observe the URL changes to https://ghosttunes.com/new/albums

The URL location change is not detected in JavaFX's WebView.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
