I could not reproduce the problem on my Linux build 2000.02.26.08.
sarnold, could you specify which build you are using? Is the crash
reproducible? Steps to reproduce?
Uhh -- I had entered a very nice description of this bug, in all its glory. Does
anyone know what happened to the description? (I used the new helpful bug
reporter form...)
Well, lets try again.
I saw the problem with my linux (2.0.36 kernel) build based on the 2000.02.25
CVS tree -- I normally checkout the tree in the evening, build, and then use it
the next day. (I am still building today's 2000.02.26 CVS... :)
I managed to reproduce it quite easily:
$ mozilla http://www.cadillac.com
would lead to a segfault. Typing that address into the address bar would cause a
segfault.
Mozilla would display parts of all the graphics on the page -- usually it
doesn't finish loading the main cadillac logo before it segfaults. As zach saw,
the cadillac web page opens a new window using a javascript thingy. I don't know
javascript, so I don't know which DOM level this bug belongs to -- hence the
"browser general" specification. I am hoping whoever gets this bug will triage
it to the right place. I never see a new window created.
I cannot view the cadillac web page with this build of mozilla -- it is that
reproducable. :) (sp?)
I have just made a 4000-line "strace" of the problem. I could attach that, if
anyone thinks it would help. (I made the strace by starting mozilla, typing
"http://www.cadillac.com/" into the address bar, starting strace with "strace -o
mozilla.cadillac -p 11543" -- so all this includes is the bit of mozilla loading
much of the cadillac.com web page, then crashing.)
Just for kicks, here are the last several lines of the strace output:
write(12, "(\0\4\0008\3\0\4%\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 16
read(12, 0xbfffd96c, 32) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
select(13, [12], NULL, NULL, NULL) = 1 (in [12])
read(12, "\1\0013\22\0\0\0\0\1\0\200\0\377\377\377\377\0\0\0\0\1"..., 32) = 32
write(1, "WEBSHELL- = 7\n", 14) = 14
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) ---
The feb 26 CVS should be done building within the hour; I can give it a test
then. :)

You could save the file in NS 4.x and play aroudn with it, see what parts causes
the crash. Does it still crash if you take out the JS functions, for instance?
I just attached an .html file that causes my mozilla (2/25/00 CVS) to crash on
my linux (2.0.36 that is otherwise constantly upgraded to the newest libraries).
I built it by deleting huge swaths of html from the main page of cadillac.com. I
took out practically everything that could be removed (except for the page
title... :) that left it looking legal still.
Do view the attachment with care -- it caused mine to crash, and if you have
windows open you would like to keep, test it in another mozilla session. (Which
BTW is very handy, I wish I had discovered it earlier. :)
(also added keywords "testcase" and "crash" :)
I hope this helps. :)

Looks like the JS is doing it then.

Ok -- using february 26 CVS (pulled in the afternoon or so..) -- my testcase no
longer causes mozilla to segfault, but heading straight to www.cadillac.com
still causes a segfault.
*sigh*

www.cadillac.com works fine in 2000022608 W95 (just another data point...)

Marking as WORKSFORME, tested on both WinNT and linux (todays builds), loads
without crashing.
