We should just fix both addDomainErrorLink functions to fail gracefully (i.e. try/catch) for URIs without a hostname.

In my case I have found it when opening www.google.co.uk - I have disabled geo location if that assists.

Noticed in 3.6.8

Made irrelevant by bug 562433.

Comment 6

[Nigel]

Issue still occurs with Firefox 3.6.9 - when will this be released?  If its part of 3.6.9 then the patch has not worked

Comment 7

[Nigel]

To reproduce use I went from google with the link to the BBC site with the search term good food and got the error - note I have disabled the location awareness of firefox

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMLocation.host]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://smarterwiki/content/smarterwiki.js :: anonymous :: line 1225"  data: no]

Bug 562443 was fixed for Firefox 4.0. You can confirm that it's fixed with a current beta release. It was not fixed for 3.6.x.
