Message #106518
[Bug 207456]
The problem with using "localhost" that occurs when in offline mode
should be fixed with the fix from bug 1140284 (inbound just now). If
someone still suffers from this problem even after using that fix, I
would like to know how to repeat it!
Problems with accessing local hosts while in offline mode using _other_
hostnames than "localhost" is the problem mentioned in Bug 698302 and is
not covered by this specific bug report.

The computer in use is running an apache http server. It is not
always connected to a network. The firefox home page is set to the
localhost http server. When not connected to a network through either
ethernet or wifi, starting firefox 3.0 results in a failure to connect
to the local server. Manually changing to online mode rectifies the
problem. This bug is specific to firefox 3, and did not occur in
previous versions.
