Details

Trying to load just about any URL, including the tests in the menu, after the app has started up and loaded test0.html, results in a crash: #2 0x40b4484f in abort () at ../sysdeps/generic/abort.c:83 #3 0x409761b7 in g_logv () #4 0x40976226 in g_log () #5 0x4093edf0 in gdk_x_error () #6 0x409cf0b9 in _XError () #7 0x409cc5b4 in _XEventsQueued () #8 0x409b061d in XCheckIfEvent () #9 0x4093c299 in gdk_compress_exposures () #10 0x4093e35b in gdk_event_translate () #11 0x4093c612 in gdk_event_get () #12 0x4089a12e in gtk_main_iteration_do () #13 0x4089a077 in gtk_main_iteration () #14 0x40899ea5 in gtk_main () #15 0x40062ff0 in nsAppShell::Run (this=0x8089c08) at ../../../../mozilla/widget/src/gtk/nsAppShell.cpp:106 #16 0x805231f in nsNativeViewerApp::Run (this=0x8087e90) at ../../../../mozilla/webshell/tests/viewer/nsGTKMain.cpp:79 #17 0x80524b0 in main (argc=2, argv=0xbffff834) at ../../../../mozilla/webshell/tests/viewer/nsGTKMain.cpp:127

Inserting Milestone info.
I do not believe this one is fixed. It still happens in the latest release. This is how I observe it: while loading a URL that has a glitch in transmitting, for whatever reason, Mozilla crashes. Comparing to Opera I notice that Opera displays the parts of a site >>as they are received<<. If Opera cannot find parts of a site it assumes the job is done. Mozilla on the other hand does not draw as items are received but buffers in the background. Then when all items are received it displays them. However, it a site does not have something needed for a page available at the time Mozilla dies waiting. This is what I feel is happening. But the problem is not fixed.
