Description

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:0.9.6+)

BuildID:    2001121313

Try to choose anything in any of the comboxes, mozilla will spent time and time
until crashing

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. wait for comboboxes to appear instead of "Veuillez patienter" (please wait in
french)
2. Choose anything in the comboboxes
3. Wait mozilla to crash ;-)

Actual Results:  Mozilla exploding into a million of pieces on my desktop

Expected Results:  selection successful, list reajusted to a wider selection
(please have a look at IE4 or more to see what I mean

It has been working some mnths ago but not anymore, in this javascript program,
lot of datas were manipulated. It sounds like a stack overflow or a memory
limitation set somewhere or something like that... (it seems to work with fewer
datas)
