Details
* TITLE/SUMMARY
[PP] Mac Viewer crashes if a space is a subset of URL text string
* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0) Into the URL field, type two words, delineated by a space (i.e. "foo bar")
* RESULT
- What happened
Viewer dies. Doesn't crash, but it no longer responds to any keyboard or mouse
events.
Just typing a single space as the URL has no effect.
- What was expected
Behavior equivalent to the Win viewer (i.e. no crash.)
(Versions >=4.06 has acclimated users to smart browsing, many of whom may now
instinctively type keywords separated by spaces into the URL field irregardless
of whether is supported.
If this shell will be used for more general consumption than it's presently used,
I'd suggest that this be fixed.
* REGRESSION
- Occurs On
viewer (1.5.98 build for Mac OS)
viewerDebug (1.4.98 build for Mac OS, from sdagley)
- Doesn't Occur On
Communicator 4.5 for Win32 (RTM Complete build used)
viewer (1.5.98 build for Win32)
* CONFIGURATIONS TESTED
- PowerMac 8500/150 (233 Mhz 604e), 64 MB RAM, Mac OS 8.5.1

The freeze is because we're doing a synchronous Dns lookup (bug 2132) and then
once dns times out, it quits because of bug that throws after the timer fires
while text is selected. This is two, two, two bugs in one, but doesn't indicate
any new bug behavior. marking as dup.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 2132 ***
