702140 - On a page with more than 200 links, the links break

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[TerraEpon]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0
Build ID: 20111104165243

Steps to reproduce:

Went to a page with over 200 links


Actual results:

Basically on a page that has over 200 links (this has been tested), with Firefox 8, the links break and don't show up as links, and the other HTML isn't processed either. The source HTML was not problematic. The page works fine in FF 3.6, though I dunno about any versions in between.


Expected results:

Well, the HTML should have worked?

WFM.

See test page, 200links.html.

Attachment: HTML Test Page

Page has >200 links (of the same page, as it is).

(Guess you'll have to save the link & open it.)

Looks fine to me too.  Do you have any add-ons that could have caused this?

No, because it also happened on the same page with my father's Mac (and no add ons I know of) and I'm on Windows. The HTML is very standard....it's mostly just a page of links and some text (and unfortunately it's a private page).
Oddly a different page with much more complex HTML and far more links DID word, so I dunno what's going on here.

Does the private page pass validation? http://validator.w3.org/

Does the demo page therube provided work for you?
