510569 - Top crash site, entirely flash, kills back button and corrupts download manager.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[u348128]

I was investigating the site, because it was on the top crash URL's for 3.5.2.

I couldn't crash it, but the site killed my possibility to go back, even when I click very fast on back button. 

Maybe, corrupted back button is related to crash, but that is speculation.

- Go to site.
- The right of the middle, contains a column with pictures and some text.
- Go to the bottom of that column.
- Click on '>>' or '<<'.
- I can't go back to the site I was visiting before, except when I use dropdown menu.

I opened the link in a new tab and I was also downloading a file. The download froze and it's still froze for like 20 minutes......Now when I canceled it and restarted it, the file was done. So it hit the GUI for download manager as well.

Just to confirm your findings. The file downloaded but it got corrupted.  I have uploaded the corrupted file here

Then I change the title a little bit and mark it critical.

The site is entirely flash.

Actually, the site is correctly programmed, so the back button works even if it's in flash. When you use the back button, you can notice that the column returns to its back page.

So marking as invalid, since it isn't Firefox fault and actually there's nothing wrong with that behavior.

I forgot : I couldn't reproduce the download corruption. Can you reproduce it with the latest version of the Flash plugin ?
If you do, it could be reopened, but there's probably already a report about that kind of bug (plugins related problems).
