Details

Mac parsing illegal frameset html 1. Launch app and load page using html code below extracted from URL listed: http://www.ac2000.org • Crash on Mac PPC read only mem exception into bowels of mem mgr; memory is so whacked you have to rs out of Macsbug. Unix and Windows simply do not layout test page. 4.51 reports errors when frame pages cannot be located and then stalls. If you load the actual URL, page layout fails at gdk pixmap for Naval Observatory clock, which I believe is a separate bug. I found the parsing issue starting to track the pixmap problem. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <HTML> <FRAMESET> <frameset border=0 cols="140,*"> <frameset border=0 rows="*,80"> <frame noresize marginwidth=0 scrolling=no src="nav.html"> <frame noresize marginwidth=1 scrolling=no src="spon.html"> </frameset> <frameset border=0 rows="*"> <frame scrolling=auto src="home.html" name="main_window"> </frameset> </frameset> </FRAMESET> </HTML>
and that was with March 9 build, optimized on Mac..sorry, I am tired.

This bug is in the content sink. It's either Kipps or (more likely) ChrisK's. I'm wondering how this got to be assigned a parser bug in the first place. See also: 3522
It was assigned as a parser bug because I thought it was due to the parser choking on the erroneous html.

There are multiple problems here. First, the crash should be fixed first and I'm reassigning to Pierre since it is Mac specific. Second, when the crash is fixed, please reassign to Vidur because there is a problem with http://www.ac2000.org/home.html (one of the sub documents in the above url) which appears ok at first with its table, but the document's content disappears after a few seconds. Sometimes to get this behavior it is necessary to restart the viewer from scratch.

I can't reproduce the crash with a 04/05 build on Mac (debug or optimized) but I remember that I could reproduce it when the bug was reassigned to me and then again just a few days ago. Maybe it's because I'm using a different machine right now... Anyhow, I don't want to hold that bug any longer: I'm reassigning it to Vidur to investigate the problem described above. ************* NOTE TO Q.A ************* Be particularly cautious when verifying that bug on Mac. Please test the URL (http://www.ac2000.org) and the HTML snippet on at least 2 different machines. Thanks! *************
