If a page has two frames, one containing text and the other recursively containing the page the two frames were in or text and an iframe recursively containing the page the iframe and text were defined in causes the processor to go phsycho, memory bloat, and an eventual invalid memory write if you wait long enough. Test cases to be attached. Page 1: -Frame 1 -Frame 1 -Frame 1 -Frame 1 -Frame 1 -Etc -Frame 2 -Frame 2 -Frame 2 -Frame 2 -Frame 2 I recommend only allowing a certain number of recursive frames. Note IE doesn't load any recursive frames.
