User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030827
Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.4

We are using bitflux editor (cf http://bitfluxeditor.org/) to create web pages
on our site : http://www.univ-reunion.fr/

bitfluxeditor is activated inside a Mozilla browser window.

Bitflux is working fine under Mozilla Browser 1.3, on MacOS X, Linux and Winxx.

But it doesn't work under Mozilla Browser 1.4 on the same platforms.
When we launch bitflux in a Mozilla Browser 1.4 window to edit some web page,
the bitflux toolbar is displayed, then we can't do anything, mozilla freezes,
displaying the hourglass indefinetely.

Reproducible: Always

From http://bitfluxeditor.org/documentation/faq/

You need Mozilla 1.0 or 1.1, not 0.9.x. Download Mozilla 1.0. right here.
...
If you are more adventureous, you can also download Mozilla 1.1.

it's mentioned on their web site:
http://bitfluxeditor.org/demo/

[...]
It does currently not work with Mozilla 1.4, (it does crash the hard way). Will
be fixed in the next release

it's a problem in their code unless they open a bug.
