115958 - Mozilla doesn't finish downloading the page

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Poligraf Sharikov]

This site is a big Cyrillic newssite.

Looking at the Page Source, I can see that the page is loaded, but it is not
displayed fully.

Indicator with the lizard head continues blinking as if the browser is still
working.

BTW, Netscape 4.72 is completely hanged by that site requiring killing it off
completely.

Thanks,

Poligraf

Reporter could you install the latest nightly build and try it again?

I've downloaded latest build from the URL provided.

My Win2K computer where I've installed it behaves exactly as Win95 was behaving 
before (downloading it completely, showing about half and displaying "sending 
request to migbanner.com.ua") whether Win95 computer behaves even more 
strangely, displaying some nonsense (

LI {list-style:square; color:#b9bec3} TH {font:bold 10px Arial, Helvetica, 
sans-serif; color:#000000; text-decoration:none} .maint {font:10pt Arial, 
Helvetica, sans-serif} .main {font:9pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif} .b 
{font:bold 9pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#000000; 
text-decoration:none} .blink {font:bold 9pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif} 
.bwhite {font:bold 9pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#f1f1f1; 
text-decoration:none} 

and so on)
and having different statuses in the ststus bar below changing one another in a 
cycle.

I feel that the problem is somehow tied to the migbanner.com.ua host and its 
accessibility from the browser.

Confirming this bug on Windows 98, Mozilla 0.9.7 milestone.

Old summary: Mozilla 0.9.6 can't display the site.
New summary: Mozilla doesn't finish downloading the page

I put the following in my hosts file

0.0.0.0         migbanner.com.ua

But the page still didn't finish downloading. 

Actual behavior: status bar indicates page continues to download, Mozilla icon
continues animating, indicating download continuing. Download appears to be
done, however.

Expected behavior: Download finishes.

inline css, tons of pixel gif's, including flash.  took a long time to finish
loading, but in today's mozilla build, it did end loading after about 20 seconds
or so.

andrew, do you have flash installed??

Comment 7

[Andrew Hagen]

I do have Flash installed.

I can confirm, as well, that in 0.9.7, Build ID: 2002011003, this bug has been
fixed. The site now finishes downloading. As was mentioned, the site is still
slow to load, but that appears to be a server problem on the www.mignews.com end.

I'd have to agree that it worksforme.
