Details

The www.tm.com (Times Mirror) web site results in a client crash upon clicking the page's "Times Mirror overview" imagemap (located within a table), both when drawn or not drawn. Specifically: 1. Clicking the bitmapped sans serif text, reproducibly crashing, whether drawn or not. (ex: Tracking ID KXK14BPK) 2. Clicking the "History" image in the image map yielded a non-reproducible Blue Screen of Death. 3. The page rendering was completely messed up (repeated and garbled GIF images where they weren't meant to be) 4. Just navigating the site a bit will crash the browser after a click or two. ;) (Used the 11.23.98 builds of Viewer & XPViewer on Win NT 4.0.)
grr...make that 11.23.98a viewers.

I've been trying this page and seeing *no* problems at all on NT. Can you try todays build and see if the bugs are gone? #1 and #2 are dups of bug #1568. #3 I don't see #4 I don't see, though if you hit the back button after going through one of the maps then you are in bug #1568's territory. If you agree with this analysis then please make it a dup of #1568 after you try todays build...thanks
Certainly. Will do within 45 minutes.

Looks great on the 11.24.98 (20:48) build, verified on Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 98. (other than the image map problems, duplicate of 1568) Thus, marking duplicate of 1568. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 1568 ***
P.S. Yes, Virginia, this was checked both on Viewer & XPViewer. ;) [And there are actually other ways to crash Viewer on this site with today's build --- I'll write 'em up separately ASAP.]
