Fenix: FNX2-16133 ⁃ [Bug] Page containing "--" (two dashes) is always open in search engine

Created on 18 May 2020 · 3Comments · Source: mozilla-mobile/fenix

Steps to reproduce

Type or paste https://disposable-wide4--solidsoft-blog-disposable.netlify.app/ in the address page (or anything with --).
Try to open it.

Expected behavior

The page is open.

Actual behavior

The address is used as search term in a default search engine.

Context

That address scheme (with two dashes) is used by Netlify to distinguish the preview versions of a page from the production ones. As a result, I'm not able to check my webpage with Fenix.

Device information

Android device: Pixel 3
Fenix version: 75.0.0-beta.6 (the latest from Google Play)

Relevant AC PR merged and its issue closed. Should be ready for testing.

Verified as fixed on Fenix Nightly 21560608 GV 79.0a1 from 6/4 with Motorola Moto G6 (Android 8).

Typing or pasting the page https://disposable-wide4--solidsoft-blog-disposable.netlify.app/ in the address bar opens the website and not as a search term in the default search engine.

I will remove the qa:needed label.
