Created by Christopher Blizzard (blizzard@appliedtheory.com) on Tuesday, August 11, 1998 5:21:03 PM PDT Additional Details : There is a problem with the mozilla code as checked out on Aug 11, 1998. Resizing the main browser window causes and endless loop of trying to refresh the screen. This has been compiled on RedHat Linux 5.1 with Motif 2.1. A stack trace reveals a stack that has over 500 stack frames in less than a second. This was generated by pausing the browser in gdb, resizing the window and then restarting the browser and immediately stopping it again. Letting it run for over 2 seconds created a stack that had over 2000 frames. The stack trace for anyone who is interested is located at: http://odin.appliedtheory.com/big_stack_trace.txt It's a bit large to attach to a bug report. Updated by Christopher Blizzard (blizzard@appliedtheory.com) on Thursday, August 13, 1998 8:37:18 AM PDT Additional Details : I have verified that this bug has shown up in between the mozilla-19980603 and the mozilla-19980728 releases and affects the version that is in CVS now. I've built all three on the same machine. Version 06/03 works well and verions 07/28 exhibits the problem. I'll spend more time on it when I get home tonight and see if I can track it down.

We've had lots of problems with Motif 2.x, have you tried compiling with 1.2.x?

This problem has fixed itself in more recent revisions of xfe. It's ok to close this, I should have done so earlier.
