Meta tag http-equiv="refresh" breaks content frame

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Navigate WA to a page with a <meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;someRelativeURL.html" />
2. Note that WebAnywhere tries to go to that page on the proxy, it doesn't
attempt to load that URI relative to the proxy.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
   It should proxy that page.

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

Note that any sort of meta-refresh breaks the content frame, since none of them 
are
proxied.

Mostly fixable by noting that the HTML DTD only allows content="" in meta tags, 
so it should be safe to 
replace them in general.

This will at least proxify the URL so that it refreshes in a way that 
WebAnywhere can handle.

// Automatic refreshes are also bad for accessibility.
//$_response_body = preg_replace('#http-equiv="Refresh"#', 
'http-equiv="Refresh2"', $_response_body);
  $_response_body = preg_replace_callback('#content="(?:\d+;)?(.*)"#', function ($match) {
      global $_script_url;
      global $_config;
      return 'content="0;'. $_script_url . '?' . $_config['url_var_name'] . '=' . encode_url($match[1]) . '"';
  }, $_response_body);
