143019 - Opened window with document created by document.write won't stop loading

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 81980

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Roger C. Soares]

A document created by a document.write() won't close the document when </html>
is reached on mozilla unless a document.close() is specified.

The opened window stops loading on IE and NS4.

Attachment: popup window won't stop loading

Interesting note, don't close the popup window and reload the test case. The
new document will be appended to the popup window, duplicating the content.

Comment 2

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

The appending is correct behavior, since document.close()/document.open() never
get called.
