Rave, could you please include detailed steps to reproduce the bug, and also 
include the build id?  If Mozilla crashes, try downloading a talkback build and 
including the talkback id after the crash.

Please read The bug Reporting Guidelines if you have any questions.  
(http://www.mozilla.org/quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html)

Thanks for helping out Mozilla!

Assigning to Java to WebShell Component.  Error occurs using WebClient 1.1.
I am using Windows 98.  When you double click the bookmarks, it hangs.  Seems 
to get stuck.

Ravi: Which bookmarks are you double-clicking on? Both the Bookmarks menu and
the Bookmarks in the Personal Toolbar should only require a single click, right?

Also, in future, please use the Bugzilla Helper for filing bugs:
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bugzilla-helper.html
(among other things, it automagically adds your Build ID)

I am not sure if we are talking about the same thing. I am using WebClient 1.1 
with Mozilla 0.9.2 (and not Mozilla alone).  I am using the sample java code 
that is used to embedd Mozilla in java.  Ed Burns is the module owner for 
WebClient.  This should be assigned to him.

I have attached the release notes for the WebClient below.

Resummerizing.

I could reproduce this bug.  Click on the Bookmarks in WebClient, it causes the 
WebClient 1.1 and the browser to crash.  This did not occur in WebClient 1.0.

Jeet: Please try a talkback-enabled build:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-win32-talkback.zip
(as always, be sure to delete your old Mozilla directory before installing the
new one)

Then, if you get a crash, please post the Talkback ID here.
(you can get the talkback id by running <moz dir>/bin/components/talkback.exe)

I tried using the Talkback version of Mozilla, it crashed this time as I had 
expected...Here is the stackTrace for that..

I consistently get this error when i use different versions of Mozilla (from a 
different branch) with WebClient.. It always seems to work only with the 
particular branch it is released with!  Nnot sure what the dependency is there.

I believe WebClient 1.1 works only with Mozilla 0.9.2.  If this is incorrect, 
please inform, I can retry the above.  I have attached the release notes for 
the WebClient below. 
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/blackwood/webclient/release-notes/1_1.html

Since, I cannot any information to you this way..what i can do is go into the 
code, debug further and see where exaclty in Bookmarks can be the WebClient and 
the browser are hanging.  BTW, this happens when double clicking the bookmarks 
with WebClient..

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance in the above.

This is what i could find with Mozilla 0.9.2 with WebClient 1.1.
I was suspecting that it hangs in the BookmarksFrame, but it seems to be 
hanging in the WebClient somewhere.

Since this bug was reported, a newer version of Mozilla (1.0 RC1) has been
released. Reporter, please can you check to see whether this
bug is still present in a recent build (Moz1-RC1 or a new nightly build). If
this bug does not occur please can you resolve the report? If there still is a 
problem please let us know?
