Going through the new HTML 4.01 test suite at w3.org, I came across this
problem.  I get a dialogue box, advising that the event has occured, and then
good old Dr. Watson.  Not sure if this is a Phoenix-specific issue, please
change it if you have Mozilla installed

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to the page
2.do the test

Actual Results:  
crash

Expected Results:  
not crash

I can confirm this with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3b)
Gecko/20030228 Phoenix/0.5, but I haven't tested it in Mozilla yet.

I have now tested with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4a)
Gecko/20030303 and it does not crash in Mozilla. This bug seems to be specific
to Phoenix.

I also hit this bug (while debugging http://www.squarefree.com/shell/shell.html)
and almost submitted a duplicate.

I thought the crash might be related to form autocomplete (since that's one
difference between Phoenix and Mozilla), but turning off and clearing form
autocomplete does not make the crash go away.

I'm not seeing this anymore on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US;
rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030425 Mozilla Firebird/0.6, marking this as fixed, if you can
still reproduce it, feel free to reopen.
