title: window.location.href not working on Windows Phone 7.1/7.5
body: <p>Basically I'm doing a simple JS redirect when an event is fired, this code works on a whole host of other mobile/desktop browsers (including desktop versions of IE), but not on WP7.1 and WP7.5 (I don't have any other WP devices to test on). </p>
  
  <pre><code>window.location.href = "/item_details/" + item_id;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The behavior I'm seeing is the URL is replaced inside the navigation bar on the phone and it acts like it's loading the page; the progress bar slowly increases up until ~90% when it hangs indefinitely.  Looking at the logs on my server I see NO incoming connections from the device.  If I click in the address bar and and submit it manually the intended page immediately loads.  </p>
  
  <p>I see the same behavior with each of the following lines too:</p>
  
  <pre><code>window.location.href = "http://www.google.com"
  window.location.replace = "http://www.google.com"
  window.location = "http://www.google.com"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In every case the loading bar progresses to ~90% and stops, not making any outgoing connections.</p>
