110140 - Crash when opening links in a second tab

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Gabriele Fava]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011011
BuildID:    20011011

When I don't have additional tabs opened in a window (no matter there are one or
more windows opened), and I try to open a link in a new tab, mozilla crashes,
windows tells that the error was generated by GKLAYOUT.DLL.
The error occurred also when having two or more tabs already opened, but much
more rarely.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla
2. Open a page containing links
3. Open a link by right-clicking on it and choosing "open in new tab".

Actual Results:  Mozilla crashes, the culpable is GKLAYOUT.DLL

Expected Results:  Open a new tab

to try a newer build, reporter?

Marking WFM per comments. 

Reporter: Please try a more recent build and reopen this bug if it still occurs
for you:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-win32-talkback.zip
(as always, be sure to delete your old Mozilla directory before installing the
new one)

well, I stumbled into this old bug; it obviously doesn't take place in more
recent versions
